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 human 25S U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP is a major building block of the U2-type spliceosome and contains, in addition to the U4, U6, and U5 snRNAs, at least 30 distinct proteins. To learn more about the molecular architecture of the tri-snRNP, we have investigated interactions between tri-snRNP proteins using the yeast two-hybrid assay and in vitro binding assays, and, in addition, have identified distinct protein domains that are critical for the connectivity of this protein network in the human tri-snRNP. These studies revealed multiple interactions between distinct domains of the U5 proteins hPrp8, hBrr2 (a DExH/D-box helicase), and hSnu114 (a putative GTPase), which are key players in the catalytic activation of the spliceosome, during which the U4/U6 base-pairing interaction is disrupted and U4 is released from the spliceosome. Both the U5-specific, TPR/HAT-repeat-containing hPrp6 protein and the tri-snRNP-specific hSnu66 protein interact with several U5- and U4/U6-associated proteins, including hBrr2 and hPrp3, which contacts the U6 snRNA. Thus, both proteins are located at the interface between U5 and U4/U6 in the tri-snRNP complex, and likely play an important role in transmitting the activity of hBrr2 and hSnu114 in the U5 snRNP to the U4/U6 duplex during spliceosome activation. A more detailed analysis of these protein interactions revealed that different HAT repeats mediate interactions with specific hPrp6 partners. Taken together, data presented here provide a detailed picture of the network of protein interactions within the human tri-snRNP.
