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 U5 snRNA loop 1 is characterized by the conserved sequence G1C2C3U4U5U6Y7A8Y9 and is essential for the alignment of exons during the second step of pre-mRNA splicing in Saccharo myces cerevisiae. Despite this sequence conservation the size, rather than sequence, of loop 1 is critical for exon alignment in vitro. To determine the in vivo requirements for U5 loop 1 a library of loop 1 sequences was transformed into a yeast strain where the endogenous U5 gene was deleted. Comparison of viable mutations in loop 1 revealed that position 6 was invariant and positions 5 and 7 displayed some sequence conservation. These data indicate positions 5, 6 and 7 in loop 1 are important for U5 function in vivo. A screen for mutations that suppress the temperature-sensitive phenotype of three loop 1 mutants produced eight intragenic suppressors all containing alterations in loop 1. Further analysis of these temperature-sensitive mutants revealed that each displayed distinct cell cycle arrest phenotypes and pre-mRNA splicing inhibition patterns. The cell cycle arrest is likely attributed to inefficient splicing of alpha-tubulin pre-mRNA in one mutant and actin pre-mRNA in another. These results suggest that various mutations in loop 1 may affect the splicing of different pre-mRNAs in vivo.
