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

Est1 is a component of yeast telomerase, and est1 mutants have senescence and telomere loss phenotypes. The exact function of Est1 is not known, and it is not homologous to components of other telomerases. We previously showed that Est1 protein coimmunoprecipitates with Tlc1 (the telomerase RNA) as well as with telomerase activity. Est1 has homology to Ebs1, an uncharacterized yeast open reading frame product, including homology to a putative RNA recognition motif (RRM) of Ebs1. Deletion of EBS1 results in short telomeres. We created point mutations in a putative RRM of Est1. One mutant was unable to complement either the senescence or the telomere loss phenotype of est1 mutants. Furthermore, the mutant protein no longer coprecipitated with the Tlc1 telomerase RNA. Mutants defective in the binding of Tlc1 RNA were nevertheless capable of binding single-stranded TG-rich DNA. Our data suggest that an important role of Est1 in the telomerase complex is to bind to the Tlc1 telomerase RNA via an RRM. Since Est1 can also bind telomeric DNA, Est1 may tether telomerase to the telomere.
