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

A 28-nucleotide mRNA pseudoknot that overlaps the P1 and P2 genes of sugarcane yellow leaf virus (ScYLV) stimulates -1 ribosomal frameshifting. The in vitro frameshifting efficiency is decreased >or=8-fold upon substitution of the 3'-most loop 2 nucleotide (C27) with adenosine, which accepts a hydrogen bond from the 2'-OH group of C14 in stem S1. The solution structures of the wild-type (WT) and C27A ScYLV RNA pseudoknots show that while the RNAs adopt virtually identical overall structures, there are significant structural differences at the helical junctions of the two RNAs. Specifically, C8(+) in loop L1 in the C8(+).(G12.C28) L1-S2 major groove base triple is displaced by approximately 2.3 A relative to the accepting stem 2 base pair (G12.C28) in the C27A RNA. Here, we use a double mutant cycle approach to analyze the pairwise coupling of the C8(+).(G12.C28)...C27.(C14-G7) and ...A27.(C14-G7) hydrogen bonds in the WT and C27A ScYLV RNAs, respectively, and compare these findings with previous results from the beet western yellows virus (BWYV) RNA. We find that the pairwise coupling free energy (delta(AB)(i)) is favorable for the WT RNA (-0.7 +/- 0.1 kcal/mol), thus revealing that formation of these two hydrogen bonds is positively cooperative. In contrast, delta(AB)(i) is 0.9 +/- 0.4 kcal/mol for the poorly functional C27A ScYLV RNA, indicative of nonadditive hydrogen bond formation. These results reveal that cooperative hydrogen bond formation across the helical stem junction in H-type pseudoknots correlates with enhanced frameshift stimulation by luteoviral mRNA pseudoknots.
