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

Many aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases prevent mistranslation by relying upon proofreading activities at multiple stages of the aminoacylation reaction. In leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS), editing activities that precede or are subsequent to tRNA charging have been identified. Although both are operational, either the pre- or post-transfer editing activity can predominate. Yeast cytoplasmic LeuRS (ycLeuRS) misactivates structurally similar noncognate amino acids including isoleucine and methionine. We show that ycLeuRS has a robust post-transfer editing activity that efficiently clears tRNA(Leu) mischarged with isoleucine. In comparison, the enzyme's post-transfer hydrolytic activity against tRNA(Leu) mischarged with methionine is weak. Rather, methionyl-adenylate is cleared robustly via an enzyme-mediated pre-transfer editing activity. We hypothesize that, similar to E. coli LeuRS, ycLeuRS has coexisting functional pre- and post-transfer editing activities. In the case of ycLeuRS, a shift between the two editing pathways is triggered by the identity of the noncognate amino acid.
