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

RNA molecules contain a variety of chemically diverse, posttranscriptionally modified bases. The most abundant modified base found in cellular RNAs, pseudouridine (Ψ), has recently been mapped to hundreds of sites in mRNAs, many of which are dynamically regulated. Though the pseudouridine landscape has been determined in only a few cell types and growth conditions, the enzymes responsible for mRNA pseudouridylation are universally conserved, suggesting many novel pseudouridylated sites remain to be discovered. Here, we present Pseudo-seq, a technique that allows the identification of sites of pseudouridylation genome-wide with single-nucleotide resolution. In this chapter, we provide a detailed description of Pseudo-seq. We include protocols for RNA isolation from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pseudo-seq library preparation, and data analysis, including descriptions of processing and mapping of sequencing reads, computational identification of sites of pseudouridylation, and assignment of sites to specific pseudouridine synthases. The approach presented here is readily adaptable to any cell or tissue type from which high-quality mRNA can be isolated. Identification of novel pseudouridylation sites is an important first step in elucidating the regulation and functions of these modifications.
