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

Polyamine binding to 23S rRNA was investigated, using a photoaffinity labeling approach. This was based on the covalent binding of a photoreactive analog of spermine, N1-azidobenzamidino (ABA)-spermine, to Escherichia coli ribosomes or naked 23S rRNA under mild irradiation conditions. The cross-linking sites of ABA-spermine in 23S rRNA were determined by RNase H digestion and primer-extension analysis. Domains I, II, IV and V in naked 23S rRNA were identified as discrete regions of preferred cross-linking. When 50S ribosomal subunits were targeted, the interaction of the photoprobe with the above 23S rRNA domains was elevated, except for helix H38 in domain II whose susceptibility to cross-linking was greatly reduced. In addition, cross-linking sites were identified in domains III and VI. Association of 30S with 50S subunits, poly(U), tRNA(Phe) and AcPhe-tRNA to form a post-translocation complex further altered the cross-linking, in particular to helices H11-H13, H21, H63, H80, H84, H90 and H97. Poly(U)-programmed 70S ribosomes, reconstituted from photolabeled 50S subunits and untreated 30S subunits, bound AcPhe-tRNA in a similar fashion to native ribosomes. However, they exhibited higher reactivity toward puromycin and enhanced tRNA-translocation efficiency. These results suggest an essential role for polyamines in the structural and functional integrity of the large ribosomal subunit.
