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

In amphibian oocytes, the maternal nuclear factor NF7 associates with the elongating pre-mRNAs present on the numerous lateral loops of the lampbrush chromosomes. Here, we have purified NF7 from an oocyte extract by using a combination of ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography and demonstrated for the first time that nucleoplasmic NF7 exists primarily as free homotrimers. We confirmed the in vivo homotrimerization of NF7 by using a glutaraldehyde cross-linking assay, and we further showed that it only requires the coiled-coil domain of the NF7 tripartite motif/RBCC motif. Interestingly, we also obtained evidence that NF7 is recruited to the nucleus as a homotrimer, and expression of several mutated forms of NF7 in oocytes demonstrated that both the coiled coil and B box of NF7 are required for its chromosomal association. Together, these data strongly suggest that the interaction of NF7 with the active transcriptional units of RNA polymerase II is mediated by a trimeric B box. Finally, and in agreement with a role for NF7 in pre-mRNA maturation, we obtained evidence supporting the idea that NF7 associates with Cajal bodies.
