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

Eukaryotic mRNA processing and export are mediated by a series of complexes composed of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs). Many of these hnRNPs are methylated at arginine residues within their RGG domains. Although cellular arginine methylation is required for the efficient nuclear export of several hnRNPs, its role in this process is unknown. To address this question, we replaced the methylated RGG tripeptides of two hnRNPs, Npl3p and Hrp1p, with KGG. We found that these substitutions specifically abolish their methylation but have different effects on their nuclear export activity. Although the efficient export of Hrp1p requires cellular methyltransferase activity, the modification of Hrp1p itself is dispensable. In contrast, we found that Npl3 arginine methylation not only facilitates its own export but also is required for Hrp1p to efficiently exit the nucleus. Consistent with this observation, we found that Npl3p and Hrp1p exist in a ribonucleoprotein complex. We provide the first evidence that the arginine methylation of a particular protein directly affects its activity. Efficient export does not require methylation per se, but unmethylated arginine residues lead to retention of hnRNPs. Thus, arginine methylation serves to mask the Npl3p RGG domain for efficient ribonucleoprotein export.
