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

Three distinct editosomes are required for the uridine insertion/deletion editing that creates translatable mitochondrial mRNAs in Trypanosoma brucei. They contain KREPB6, KREPB7, or KREPB8 proteins and their respective endonucleases KREN3, KREN2, or KREN1. RNAi knockdowns of KREPB6, KREPB7, and KREPB8 variably affect growth and RNA editing. KREPB6 and KREPB7 knockdowns substantially reduced in vitro insertion site cleavage activity of their respective editosomes, while KREPB8 knockdown did not affect its editosome deletion site cleavage activity despite inhibition of growth and editing. KREPB6, KREPB7, and KREPB8 knockdowns disrupted tagged KREN3, KREN2, or KREN1 editosomes, respectively, to varying degrees, and in the case of KREN1 editosomes, the deletion editing site cleavage activity shifted to a smaller S value. The varying effects correlate with a combination of the relative abundances of the KREPB6-8 proteins and of the different insertion and deletion sites. Tagged KREPB6-8 were physically associated with deletion subcomplexes upon knockdown of the centrally interactive KREPA3 protein, while KREN1-3 endonucleases were associated with insertion subcomplexes. The results indicate that KREPB6-8 occupy similar positions in editosomes and are important for the activity and specificity of their respective endonucleases. This suggests that they contribute to the accurate recognition of the numerous similar but diverse editing site substrates.
