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

We report the identification, cDNA cloning, and molecular characterization of a novel, constitutive nucleolar protein. The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence of the human protein defines a polypeptide of a calculated mass of 61.5 kDa and an isoelectric point of 9.9. Inspection of the primary sequence disclosed that the protein is a member of the family of "DEAD-box" proteins, representing a subgroup of putative ATP-dependent RNA helicases. ATPase activity of the recombinant protein is evident and stimulated by a variety of polynucleotides tested. Immunolocalization studies revealed that protein NOH61 (nucleolar helicase of 61 kDa) is highly conserved during evolution and shows a strong accumulation in nucleoli. Biochemical experiments have shown that protein NOH61 synthesized in vitro sediments with approximately 11.5 S, i.e., apparently as homo-oligomeric structures. By contrast, sucrose gradient centrifugation analysis of cellular extracts obtained with buffers of elevated ionic strength (600 mM NaCl) revealed that the solubilized native protein sediments with approximately 4 S, suggestive of the monomeric form. Interestingly, protein NOH61 has also been identified as a specific constituent of free nucleoplasmic 65S preribosomal particles but is absent from cytoplasmic ribosomes. Treatment of cultured cells with 1) the transcription inhibitor actinomycin D and 2) RNase A results in a complete dissociation of NOH61 from nucleolar structures. The specific intracellular localization and its striking sequence homology to other known RNA helicases lead to the hypothesis that protein NOH61 might be involved in ribosome synthesis, most likely during the assembly process of the large (60S) ribosomal subunit.
