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

RNase P is a ubiquitous endoribonuclease responsible for cleavage of the 5' leader of precursor tRNAs (pre-tRNAs). Although the protein composition of RNase P holoenzymes varies significantly among Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya, the holoenzymes have essential RNA subunits with several sequences and structural features that are common to all three kingdoms of life. Additional structural elements of the RNA subunits have been found that are conserved in eukaryotes, but not in bacteria, and might have functions specifically required by the more complex eukaryotic holoenzymes. In this study, we have mutated four eukaryotic-specific conserved regions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae nuclear RNase P RNA and characterized the effects of the mutations on cell growth, enzyme function, and biogenesis of RNase P. RNase P with mutations in each of the four regions tested is sufficiently functional to support life although growth of the resulting yeast strains was compromised to varying extents. Further analysis revealed that mutations in three different regions cause differential defects in holoenzyme assembly, localization, and pre-tRNA processing in vivo and in vitro. These data suggest that most, but not all, eukaryotic-specific conserved regions of RNase P RNA are important for the maturation and function of the holoenzyme.
