Real-time evidence for EF-G-induced dynamics of helix 44 in 16S rRNA.
Article in Journal of molecular biology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The penultimate stem-loop of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), helix 44, plays a central role in ribosome function. Using time-resolved dimethyl sulfate (DMS) probing, we have analyzed time-dependent modifications that occur at specific bases in this helix near the decoding region, resulting from the binding of elongation factor G (EF-G) in various forms. When EF-G-GTP is bound to 70S ribosomes, bases A1492 and A1493 are immediately protected, while other bases in the region show either no change or enhanced modification. When apo-EF-G is bound to 70S ribosomes and GTP is added, substantial transient time-dependent enhancement occurs at bases A1492 and A1493, with somewhat less enhancement occurring at base A1483, all in the first 45 ms. When mRNA and deacylated tRNAs are bound to the 70S ribosome and EF-G-GTP is added, bases A1492 and A1493 again show substantial and continued enhancement, while bases A1408, A1413, and A1418 all show time-dependent protection. These results provide primary, real-time evidence that EF-G induces direct or indirect structural changes in this region as EF-G is bound and as GTP is hydrolyzed.
