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 RanGTP-binding nuclear transport receptors transportin1 (TRN1) and transportin2 (TRN2) are highly similar in sequence but are reported to function in nuclear import and export, respectively. Here we show that TRN2 possesses properties of a nuclear import receptor. TRN1/2 both interacted with a similar set of RNA-binding proteins in a RanGTP-sensitive manner. TRN2 bound RanGTP with high affinity, a feature of nuclear import receptors. As expected of an import complex, RanGTP also disrupted the interaction between TRN2 and HuR, an RNA-binding protein previously described as a TRN2 export substrate. The HuR nucleocytoplasmic shuttling signal, a sequence resembling the M9 nuclear import signal of hnRNP A1, was necessary and sufficient for TRN-mediated nuclear import of HuR in vitro. Finally, crosscompetition experiments demonstrated that HuR nucleocytoplasmic shuttling signal and M9 are imported along redundant pathways involving TRN1/2, substantiating the function of TRN2 in nuclear import.
