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

Mistranslation is toxic to bacterial and mammalian cells and can lead to neurodegeneration in the mouse. Mistranslation is caused by the attachment of the wrong amino acid to a specific tRNA. Many aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases have an editing activity that deacylates the mischarged amino acid before capture by the elongation factor and transport to the ribosome. For class I tRNA synthetases, the editing activity is encoded by the CP1 domain, which is distinct from the active site for aminoacylation. What is not clear is whether the enzymes also have an editing activity that is separable from CP1. A point mutation in CP1 of class I leucyl-tRNA synthetase inactivates deacylase activity and produces misacylated tRNA. In contrast, although deletion of the entire CP1 domain also disabled the deacylase activity, the deletion-bearing enzyme produced no mischarged tRNA. Further investigation showed that a second tRNA-dependent activity prevented misacylation and is intrinsic to the active site for aminoacylation.
