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

Bacterial cold shock proteins (CSPs) regulate the cellular response to temperature downshift. Their general principle of function involves RNA chaperoning and transcriptional antitermination. Here we present two crystal structures of cold shock protein B from Bacillus subtilis (Bs-CspB) in complex with either a hexanucleotide (5'-UUUUUU-3') or heptanucleotide (5'-GUCUUUA-3') single-stranded RNA (ssRNA). Hydrogen bonds and stacking interactions between RNA bases and aromatic sidechains characterize individual binding subsites. Additional binding subsites which are not occupied by the ligand in the crystal structure were revealed by NMR spectroscopy in solution on Bs-CspB·RNA complexes. Binding studies demonstrate that Bs-CspB associates with ssDNA as well as ssRNA with moderate sequence specificity. Varying affinities of oligonucleotides are reflected mainly in changes of the dissociation rates. The generally lower binding affinity of ssRNA compared to its ssDNA analog is attributed solely to the substitution of thymine by uracil bases in RNA.
