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 Saccharomyces cerevisiae SEN1 gene codes for a nuclear-localized superfamily I helicase. SEN1 is an ortholog of human SETX (senataxin), which has been implicated in the neurological disorders ataxia-ocular apraxia type 2 and juvenile amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Pleiotropic phenotypes conferred by sen1 mutations suggest that Sen1p affects multiple steps in gene expression. Sen1p is embedded in a protein-protein interaction network involving direct binding to multiple partners. To test whether the interactions occur independently or in a dependent sequence, we examined interactions with the RNA polymerase II subunit Rpb1p, which is required for transcription, and Rnt1p, which is required for 3'-end maturation of many noncoding RNAs. Mutations were identified that impair one of the two interactions without impairing the other interaction. The effects of the mutants on the synthesis of U5 small nuclear RNA were analyzed. Two defects were observed, one in transcription termination and one in 3'-end maturation. Impairment of the Sen1p-Rpb1p interaction resulted in a termination defect. Impairment of the Sen1p-Rnt1p interaction resulted in a processing defect. The results suggest that the Sen1p-Rpb1p and Sen1p-Rnt1p interactions occur independently of each other and serve genetically separable purposes in targeting Sen1p to function in two temporally overlapping steps in gene expression.
