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

Several nuclear-encoded proteins containing pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) motifs have previously been identified to be trans-factors essential for particular chloroplast RNA editing events through analysis of mutants affected in chloroplast biogenesis or function. Other PPR genes are known to encode proteins involved in other aspects of organelle RNA metabolism. A function has not been assigned to most members of the large plant PPR gene family. Arabidopsis and rice each contain over 400 PPR genes, of which about a fifth exhibit a C-terminal DYW domain. We describe here a comparative genomics approach that will facilitate identification of the role of RNA-binding proteins in organelle RNA metabolism. We have implemented this strategy to identify an Arabidopsis nuclear-encoded gene RARE1 that is required for editing of the chloroplast accD transcript. RARE1 carries 15 PPR motifs, an E/E+ and a DYW domain, whereas previously reported editing factors CRR4, CRR21, and CLB19 lack a DYW domain. The accD gene encodes the beta carboxyltransferase subunit of acetyl coA carboxylase, which catalyzes the first step in fatty acid biosynthesis in chloroplasts. Despite a lack of accD C794 editing and lack of restoration of an evolutionarily conserved leucine residue in the beta carboxyltransferase protein, rare1 mutants are unexpectedly robust and reproduce under growth room conditions. Previously the serine-to-leucine alteration caused by editing was deemed essential in the light of the finding that a recombinantly expressed "unedited" form of the pea acetyl coA carboxylase was catalytically inactive.
