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 African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) encodes a single Nudix enzyme in its genome, termed the g5R protein (g5Rp). Nudix phosphohydrolases cleave a variety of substrates, such as nucleotides and diphosphoinositol polyphosphates. Previously, ASFV g5Rp was shown to hydrolyze diphosphoinositol polyphosphates and GTP, but was unable to cleave methylated mRNA cap analogues. In vaccinia virus (VACV), a distant relative of ASFV, the D9 and D10 Nudix enzymes were shown to cleave the mRNA cap, but only when the cap was attached to an RNA body. Here, we show that recombinant ASFV g5Rp hydrolyzes the mRNA cap when tethered to an RNA moiety, liberating m(7)GDP as a product. Mutations in the Nudix motif abolished mRNA decapping activity, confirming that g5Rp was responsible for cap cleavage. The decapping activity of g5Rp was potently inhibited by excess uncapped RNA but not by methylated cap analogues, suggesting that substrate recognition occurs by RNA binding.
