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

Ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) is located in the mRNA binding site of the 40S subunit of cytosolic ribosomes. Two maize (Zea mays) rps6 genes were identified that encode polypeptides (30 kD, 11.4 pI) with strong primary amino acid sequence and predicted secondary structure similarity to RPS6 of other eukaryotes. Maize RPS6 was analyzed by the use of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis systems, in vivo labeling with [(32)P]P(i) and immunological detection. Nine RPS6 isoforms were resolved in a two-dimensional basic-urea/sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis system. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry performed on trypsin-digested isoforms identified four serine (Ser) and one threonine (Thr) residue in the carboxy-terminal region as phosphorylation sites (RRS(238)KLS(241)AAAKAS(247)AAT(250)S(251)A-COOH). Heterogeneity in RPS6 phosphorylation was a consequence of the presence of zero to five phosphorylated residues. Phosphorylated isoforms fell into two groups characterized by (a) sequential phosphorylation of Ser-238 and Ser-241 and (b) the absence of phospho-Ser-238 and presence of phospho-Ser-241. The accumulation of hyper-phosphorylated isoforms with phospho-Ser-238 was reduced in response to oxygen deprivation and heat shock, whereas accumulation of these isoforms was elevated by cold stress. Salt and osmotic stress had no reproducible effect on RPS6 phosphorylation. The reduction in hyper-phosphorylated isoforms under oxygen deprivation was blocked by okadaic acid, a Ser/Thr phosphatase inhibitor. By contrast, the recovery of hyper-phosphorylated isoforms upon re-oxygenation was blocked by LY-294002, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases. Thus, differential activity of phosphatase(s) and kinase(s) determine complex heterogeneity in RPS6 phosphorylation.
