1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 mammalian Alu domain of the signal recognition particle (SRP) consists of a heterodimeric protein SRP9/14 and the Alu portion of 7SL RNA and comprises the elongation arrest function of the particle. To define the domain in Saccharomyces cerevisiae SRP that is homologous to the mammalian Alu domain [Alu domain homolog in yeast (Adhy)], we examined the assembly of a yeast protein homologous to mammalian SRP14 (Srp14p) and scR1 RNA. Srp14p binds as a homodimeric complex to the 5' sequences of scR1 RNA. Its minimal binding site consists of 99 nt. (Adhy RNA), comprising a short hairpin structure followed by an extended stem. As in mammalian SRP9/14, the motif UGUAAU present in most SRP RNAs is part of the Srp14p binding sites as shown by footprint and mutagenesis studies. In addition, certain basic amino acid residues conserved between mammalian SRP14 and Srp14p are essential for RNA binding in both proteins. These findings confirm the common ancestry of the yeast and the mammalian components and indicate that Srp14p together with Adhy RNA represents the Alu domain homolog in yeast SRP that may comprise its elongation arrest function. Despite the similarities, Srp14p selectively recognizes only scR1 RNA, revealing substantial changes in RNA-protein recognition as well as in the overall structure of the complex. The alignment of the three yeast SRP RNAs known to date suggests a common structure for the putative elongation arrest domain of all three organisms.
