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

Exosomes are complexes containing 3' --> 5' exoribonucleases that have important roles in processing, decay and quality control of various RNA molecules. Archaeal exosomes consist of a hexameric core of three active RNase PH subunits (ribosomal RNA processing factor (Rrp)41) and three inactive RNase PH subunits (Rrp42). A trimeric ring of subunits with putative RNA-binding domains (Rrp4/cep1 synthetic lethality (Csl)4) is positioned on top of the hexamer on the opposite side to the RNA degrading sites. Here, we present the 1.6 A resolution crystal structure of the nine-subunit exosome of Sulfolobus solfataricus and the 2.3 A structure of this complex bound to an RNA substrate designed to be partly trimmed rather than completely degraded. The RNA binds both at the active site on one side of the molecule and on the opposite side in the narrowest constriction of the central channel. Multiple substrate-binding sites and the entrapment of the substrate in the central channel provide a rationale for the processive degradation of extended RNAs and the stalling of structured RNAs.
