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

RNA editing adds and deletes uridine nucleotides in many preedited mRNAs to create translatable mRNAs in the mitochondria of the parasite Trypanosoma brucei. Kinetoplastid RNA editing protein B3 (KREPB3, formerly TbMP61) is part of the multiprotein complex that catalyzes editing in T. brucei and contains an RNase III motif that suggests nuclease function. Repression of KREPB3 expression, either by RNA interference in procyclic forms (PFs) or by conditional inactivation of an ectopic KREPB3 allele in bloodstream forms (BFs) that lack both endogenous alleles, strongly inhibited growth and in vivo editing in PFs and completely blocked them in BFs. KREPB3 repression inhibited cleavage of insertion editing substrates but not deletion editing substrates in vitro, whereas the terminal uridylyl transferase, U-specific exoribonuclease, and ligase activities of editing were unaffected, and approximately 20S editosomes were retained. Expression of KREPB3 alleles with single amino acid mutations in the RNase III motif had similar consequences. These data indicate that KREPB3 is an RNA editing endonuclease that is specific for insertion sites and is accordingly renamed KREN2 (kinetoplastid RNA editing endonuclease 2).
