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 trans-translation, transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA), possessing a dual function as a tRNA and an mRNA, relieves a stalled translation on the ribosome with the help of SmpB. Here, we established an in vitro system using Escherichia coli translation and trans-translation factors to evaluate two steps of trans-translation, peptidyl transfer from peptidyl-tRNA to alanyl-tmRNA and translation of the resume codon on tmRNA. Using this system, the effects of several mutations upstream of the tag-encoding region on tmRNA were examined. These mutations affected translation of the resume codon rather than peptidyl transfer, and one of them, A84U/U85G, caused a shift of the resume codon by -1. We also found that U(85) is protected from chemical modification by SmpB. In the A84U/U85G mutant, the base of protection was shifted from 85 to 84. Another mutation, A86U, which caused a shift of the resume codon by +1, shifted the base of protection from 85 to 86. The protection at 85 was suppressed by a mutation in the tRNA-like domain critical to SmpB binding. These results suggest that SmpB serves to bridge two separate domains of tmRNA to determine the initial codon for tag-translation. A mutant SmpB with a truncation of the unstructured C-terminal tail failed to promote peptidyl transfer, although it still protected U(85) from chemical modification.
