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

In the second step of the two consecutive transesterifications of the self-splicing reaction of the group I intron, the conserved guanosine at the 3' terminus of the intron (omegaG) binds to the guanosine-binding site (GBS) in the intron. In the present study, we designed a 22-nt model RNA (GBS/omegaG) including the GBS and omegaG from the Tetrahymena group I intron, and determined the solution structure by NMR methods. In this structure, omegaG is recognized by the formation of a base triple with the G264 x C311 base pair, and this recognition is stabilized by the stacking interaction between omegaG and C262. The bulged structure at A263 causes a large helical twist angle (40 +/- 80) between the G264 x C311 and C262 x G312 base pairs. We named this type of binding pocket with a bulge and a large twist, formed on the major groove, a "Bulge-and-Twist" (BT) pocket. With another twist angle between the C262 x G312 and G413 x C313 base pairs (45 +/- 100), the axis of GBS/omegaG is kinked at the GBS region. This kinked axis superimposes well on that of the corresponding region in the structure model built on a 5.0 A resolution electron density map (Golden et al., Science, 1998, 282:345-358). This compact structure of the GBS is also consistent with previous biochemical studies on group I introns. The BT pockets are also found in the arginine-binding site of the HIV-TAR RNA, and within the 16S rRNA and the 23S rRNA.
