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 second intron in the mitochondrial cytb gene of Saccharomyces capensis, belonging to group I, encodes a 280 amino acid protein containing two LAGLIDADG motifs. Genetic and molecular studies have previously shown that this protein has a dual function in the wild-type strain. It acts as a specific homing endonuclease I- Sca I promoting intron mobility and as a maturase promoting intron splicing. Here we describe the synthesis of a universal code equivalent to the mitochondrial sequence coding for this protein and the in vitro characterization of I- Sca I endonuclease activity, using a truncated mutant form of the protein p28bi2 produced in Escherichia coli. We have also determined the cleavage pattern as well as the recognition site of p28bi2. It was found that p28bi2 generates a double-strand cleavage downstream from the intron insertion site with 4 nt long 3'-overhangs. Mutational analysis of the DNA target site shows that p28bi2 recognizes a 16-19 bp sequence from positions -11 to +8 with respect to the intron insertion site.
