Molecular basis for Gβγ-mediated activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ.
Article in Nature structural & molecular biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The conversion of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate by phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) is critical for neutrophil chemotaxis and cancer metastasis. PI3Kγ is activated by Gβγ heterodimers released from G protein-coupled receptors responding to extracellular signals. Here we determined cryo-electron microscopy structures of Sus scrofa PI3Kγ-human Gβγ complexes in the presence of substrates/analogs, revealing two Gβγ binding sites: one on the p110γ helical domain and another on the p101 C-terminal domain. Comparison with PI3Kγ alone reveals conformational changes in the kinase domain upon Gβγ binding that are similar to Ras·GTP-induced changes. Assays of variants perturbing the Gβγ binding sites and interdomain contacts altered by Gβγ binding suggest that Gβγ recruits the enzyme to membranes and allosterically regulates activity via both sites. Studies of zebrafish neutrophil migration align with these findings, paving the way for in-depth investigation of Gβγ-mediated activation mechanisms in this enzyme family and drug development for PI3Kγ.
