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

The removal of intervening sequences from a primary RNA transcript is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a large complex consisting of five small nuclear (sn) RNAs and more than 150 proteins. At the start of the splicing cycle, the spliceosome assembles anew onto each pre-mRNA intron in an ordered process. Here, we show that several small-molecule inhibitors of protein acetylation/deacetylation block the splicing cycle: by testing a small number of bioactive compounds, we found that three small-molecule inhibitors of histone acetyltransferases (HATs), as well as three small-molecule inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs), block pre-mRNA splicing in vitro. By purifying and characterizing the stalled spliceosomes, we found that the splicing cycle is blocked at distinct stages by different inhibitors: two inhibitors allow only the formation of A-like spliceosomes (as determined by the size of the stalled complexes and their snRNA composition), while the other compounds inhibit activation for catalysis after incorporation of all U snRNPs into the spliceosome. Mass-spectrometric analysis of affinity-purified stalled spliceosomes indicated that the intermediates differ in protein composition both from each other and from previously characterized native A and B splicing complexes. This suggests that the stalled complexes represent hitherto unobserved intermediates of spliceosome assembly.
