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

Gene expression in trypanosomes is mainly regulated post-transcriptionally. Genes are transcribed as polycistronic mRNAs that are dissected by the concerted action of trans-splicing and polyadenylation. In trans-splicing, a common exon, the spliced leader, is added to all mRNAs from a small RNA. In this study, we examined by microarray analysis the transcriptome following RNAi silencing of the basal splicing factors U2AF65, SF1, and U2AF35. The transcriptome data revealed correlations between the affected genes and their splicing and polyadenylation signaling properties, suggesting that differential binding of these factors to pre-mRNA regulates trans-splicing and hence expression of specific genes. Surprisingly, all these factors were shown to affect not only splicing but also mRNA stability. Affinity purification of SF1 and U2AF35 complexes supported their role in mRNA stability. U2AF35 but not SF1 was shown to bind to ribosomes. To examine the role of splicing factors in mRNA stability, mutations were introduced into the polypyrimidine tract located in the 3' UTR of a mini-gene, and the results demonstrate that U2AF65 binds to such a site and controls the mRNA stability. We propose that transcripts carrying splicing signals in their 3' UTR bind the splicing factors and control their stability.
