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

Protein synthesis and its fidelity rely upon the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS), isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase (IleRS), and valyl-tRNA synthetase (ValRS) have evolved a discrete editing domain called CP1 that hydrolyzes the respective incorrectly misaminoacylated noncognate amino acids. Although active CP1 domain fragments have been isolated for IleRS and ValRS, previous reports suggested that the LeuRS CP1 domain required idiosyncratic adaptations to confer editing activity independent of the full-length enzyme. Herein, characterization of a series of rationally designed Escherichia coli LeuRS fragments showed that the beta-strands, which link the CP1 domain to the aminoacylation core of LeuRS, are required for editing of mischarged tRNALeu. Hydrolytic activity was also enhanced by inclusion of short flexible peptides that have been called "hinges" at the end of both LeuRS beta-strands. We propose that these long beta-strand extensions of the LeuRS CP1 domain interact specifically with the tRNA for post-transfer editing of misaminoacylated amino acids.
