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

Translocation, the directional movement of transfer RNA (tRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) substrates on the ribosome during protein synthesis, is regulated by dynamic processes intrinsic to the translating particle. Using single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) imaging, in combination with site-directed mutagenesis of the ribosome and tRNA substrates, we show that peptidyl-tRNA within the aminoacyl site of the bacterial pretranslocation complex can adopt distinct hybrid tRNA configurations resulting from uncoupled motions of the 3'-CCA terminus and the tRNA body. As expected for an on-path translocation intermediate, the hybrid configuration where both the 3'-CCA end and body of peptidyl-tRNA have moved in the direction of translocation exhibits dramatically enhanced puromycin reactivity, an increase in the rate at which EF-G engages the ribosome, and accelerated rates of translocation. These findings provide compelling evidence that the substrate for EF-G catalyzed translocation is an intermediate wherein the bodies of both tRNA substrates adopt hybrid positions within the translating ribosome.
