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 Fox proteins are a family of regulators that control the alternative splicing of many exons in neurons, muscle, and other tissues. Each of the three mammalian paralogs, Fox-1 (A2BP1), Fox-2 (RBM9), and Fox-3 (HRNBP3), produces proteins with a single RNA-binding domain (RRM) flanked by N- and C-terminal domains that are highly diversified through the use of alternative promoters and alternative splicing patterns. These genes also express protein isoforms lacking the second half of the RRM (FoxDeltaRRM), due to the skipping of a highly conserved 93-nt exon. Fox binding elements overlap the splice sites of these exons in Fox-1 and Fox-2, and the Fox proteins themselves inhibit exon inclusion. Unlike other cases of splicing autoregulation by RNA-binding proteins, skipping the RRM exon creates an in-frame deletion in the mRNA to produce a stable protein. These FoxDeltaRRM isoforms expressed from cDNA exhibit highly reduced binding to RNA in vivo. However, we show that they can act as repressors of Fox-dependent splicing, presumably by competing with full-length Fox isoforms for interaction with other splicing factors. Interestingly, the Drosophila Fox homolog contains a nearly identical exon in its RRM domain that also has flanking Fox-binding sites. Thus, rather than autoregulation of splicing controlling the abundance of the regulator, the Fox proteins use a highly conserved mechanism of splicing autoregulation to control production of a dominant negative isoform.
