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

Two general pathways of mRNA decay have been characterized in yeast. In one pathway, the mRNA is degraded by the cytoplasmic form of the exosome. The exosome has both 3' to 5' exoribonuclease and endoribonuclease activity, and the available evidence suggests that the exonuclease activity is required for the degradation of mRNAs. We confirm here that this is true for normal mRNAs, but that aberrant mRNAs that lack a stop codon can be efficiently degraded in the absence of the exonuclease activity of the exosome. Specifically, we show that the endo- and exonuclease activities of the exosome are both capable of rapidly degrading nonstop mRNAs and ribozyme-cleaved mRNAs. Additionally, the endonuclease activity of the exosome is not required for endonucleolytic cleavage in no-go decay. In vitro, the endonuclease domain of the exosome is active only under nonphysiological conditions, but our findings show that the in vivo activity is sufficient for the rapid degradation of nonstop mRNAs. Thus, whereas normal mRNAs are degraded by two exonucleases (Xrn1p and Rrp44p), several endonucleases contribute to the decay of many aberrant mRNAs, including transcripts subject to nonstop and no-go decay. Our findings suggest that the nuclease requirements for general and nonstop mRNA decay are different, and describe a molecular function of the core exosome that is not disrupted by inactivating its exonuclease activity.
