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

RNA 3'-terminal phosphate cyclase (Rtc) is an enzyme involved in RNA splicing that converts the 3'-terminal hydroxyl group of truncated RNA to 2',3'-cyclic phosphate, which is required just before its ligation. This reaction may occur in the following two steps: (i) Rtc + ATP --> Rtc-AMP + PP(i) and (ii) RNA-N3'p + Rtc-AMP --> RNA-N>p + Rtc + AMP. In order to reveal the reaction mechanism, Rtc of Sulfolobus tokodaii (St-Rtc) overexpressed in Escherichia coli was purified and crystallized in the following states: St-Rtc, St-Rtc+Mn, St-Rtc+ATP, St-Rtc+AMP and St-Rtc-AMP. The crystals diffracted to 2.25-3.00 A resolution and preliminary solutions of their structures have been obtained by molecular replacement using the structure of a selenomethionine-labelled St-Rtc crystal which was solved in advance using the MAD method as a model. These crystals grew in two different space groups (P3(1) and P4(2)), with the former space group displaying two distinct packing modes.
