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

Chloroplasts contain their own genetic system. Eighteen different split genes have been found among approximately 130 chloroplast genes from higher plants. However, little is known about the chloroplast splicing system. Mammalian heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNP proteins) have been shown to be involved in splicing. We applied a purification procedure developed for HeLa cell hnRNP proteins, which uses a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) affinity column, directly to the tobacco chloroplast lysate to isolate their chloroplast counterparts. Four proteins (mol. wt approximately 30 kd) bound strongly to the column. The amino-terminal sequences of three of them were determined and their cDNA clones were isolated from a tobacco leaf cDNA library. Sequence analysis of these clones revealed that all three proteins contain two ribonucleoprotein consensus sequences (RNP-CS), confirming their ribonucleoprotein (RNP) nature. The presence of putative transit peptides in their predicted protein sequences, and an in vitro import experiment confirmed they are located in the chloroplast. This is the first report of organellar proteins containing RNP-CS. In addition, these three chloroplast proteins have a very acidic amino-terminal domain, a novel feature among RNP proteins identified so far. They are expressed both in leaves and roots; their mRNA levels showed different light modulation in mature leaves. The three proteins might be involved in splicing and/or processing of chloroplast RNAs.
