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

Helix 69 of 23S rRNA forms one of the major inter-subunit bridges of the 70S ribosome and interacts with A- and P-site tRNAs and translation factors. Despite the proximity of h69 to the decoding center and tRNAs, the contribution of h69 to the tRNA selection process is unclear: previous genetic analyses have shown that h69 mutations increase frameshifting and readthrough of stop codons. However, a complete deletion of h69 does not affect the selection of cognate tRNAs in vitro. To address these discrepancies, the in vivo effects of a range of single- and multi-base h69 mutations in Escherichia coli 23S rRNA on various translation errors have been determined. While a majority of the h69 mutations examined here affected readthrough of stop codons and frameshifting, the DeltaA1916 single base deletion mutation uniquely influenced missense decoding. Different h69 mutants had either increased or decreased levels of stop codon readthrough. The h69 mutations that decreased UGA readthrough also decreased UGA reading by a mutant, near-cognate tRNA(Trp) carrying a G24A substitution in the D arm, but had far less effect on UGA reading by a suppressor tRNA with a complementary anticodon. These results suggest that h69 interactions with release factors contribute significantly to termination efficiency and that interaction with the D arm of A-site tRNA is important for discrimination between cognate and near-cognate tRNAs.
