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 retroviruses, the first nucleotide added to the tRNA primer defines the end of the U5 region in the right long terminal repeat, and the subsequent removal of this tRNA primer by RNase H exactly defines the U5 end of the linear double-stranded DNA. In most retroviruses, the entire tRNA is removed by RNase H cleavage at the RNA/DNA junction. However, the RNase H domain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase cleaves the tRNA 1 nucleotide from the RNA/DNA junction at the U5/primer binding site (PBS) junction, which leaves an rA residue at the U5 terminus. We made sequence changes at the end of the U5 region adjacent to the PBS in HIV-1 to determine whether such changes affect the specificity of tRNA primer cleavage by RNase H. In some of the mutants, RNase H usually removed the entire tRNA, showing that the cleavage specificity was shifted by 1 nucleotide. This result suggests that the tRNA cleavage specificity of the HIV-1 RNase domain H depends on sequences in U5.
