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

Alignment of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) sequences has shown, for plants, in contrast to most other eukaryotes, the presence of N-terminal serine residue (Ser2) which could be phosphorylated by CK2. Using point directed mutagenesis, we demonstrate here that in recombinant maize ZmeIF5Awt Ser2 is exclusively phosphorylated by catalytic subunit of CK2 (CK2α), whereas its mutated variant Ser2Ala is not phosphorylated. To shed light on the physiological significance of this Ser2 phosphorylation, transient expression of fluorescence-labeled proteins was performed in maize protoplast. Wild-type ZmeIF5A was distributed evenly between nucleus and cytoplasm, but the replacement of Ser2 by aspartic acid, which mimics the phosphorylated serine, influences its intracellular localization. We postulate that phosphorylation of Ser2 in maize eIF5A, and most probably in other plant cells, plays a role in specific regulation of nuclear export of eIF5A-bound mRNAs.
