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

Gene expression in the mitochondria of the kinetoplastid parasite Trypanosoma brucei is regulated primarily post-transcriptionally at the stages of RNA processing, editing, and turnover. The mitochondrial RNA-binding complex 1 (MRB1) is a recently identified multiprotein complex containing components with distinct functions during different aspects of RNA metabolism, such as guide RNA (gRNA) and mRNA turnover, precursor transcript processing, and RNA editing. In this study we examined the function of the MRB1 protein, Tb927.5.3010, which we term MRB3010. We show that MRB3010 is essential for growth of both procyclic form and bloodstream form life-cycle stages of T. brucei. Down-regulation of MRB3010 by RNAi leads to a dramatic inhibition of RNA editing, yet its depletion does not impact total gRNA levels. Rather, it appears to affect the editing process at an early stage, as indicated by the accumulation of pre-edited and small partially edited RNAs. MRB3010 is present in large (>20S) complexes and exhibits both RNA-dependent and RNA-independent interactions with other MRB1 complex proteins. Comparison of proteins isolated with MRB3010 tagged at its endogenous locus to those reported from other MRB1 complex purifications strongly suggests the presence of an MRB1 "core" complex containing five to six proteins, including MRB3010. Together, these data further our understanding of the function and composition of the imprecisely defined MRB1 complex.
