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

Ribosome-associated chaperones act in early folding events during protein synthesis. Structural information is available for prokaryotic chaperones (such as trigger factor), but structural understanding of these processes in eukaryotes lags far behind. Here we present structural analyses of the eukaryotic ribosome-associated complex (RAC) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Chaetomium thermophilum, consisting of heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70) Ssz1 and the Hsp40 Zuo1. RAC is an elongated complex that crouches over the ribosomal tunnel exit and seems to be stabilized in a distinct conformation by expansion segment ES27. A unique α-helical domain in Zuo1 mediates ribosome interaction of RAC near the ribosomal proteins L22e and L31e and ribosomal RNA helix H59. The crystal structure of the Ssz1 ATPase domain bound to ATP-Mg²⁺ explains its catalytic inactivity and suggests that Ssz1 may act before the RAC-associated chaperone Ssb. Our study offers insights into the interplay between RAC, the ER membrane-integrated Hsp40-type protein ERj1 and the signal-recognition particle.
