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

A major gap in our understanding of ribosome assembly is knowing the precise function of each of the ∼200 assembly factors. The steps in subunit assembly in which these factors participate have been examined for the most part by depleting each protein from cells. Depletion of the assembly factor Erb1 prevents stable assembly of seven other interdependent assembly factors with pre-60S subunits, resulting in turnover of early preribosomes, before the ITS1 spacer can be removed from 27SA3 pre-rRNA. To investigate more specific functions of Erb1, we constructed eight internal deletions of 40-60 amino acid residues each, spanning the amino-terminal half of Erb1. The erb1Δ161-200 and erb1Δ201-245 deletion mutations block a later step than depletion of Erb1, namely cleavage of the C2 site that initiates removal of the ITS2 spacer. Two other remodeling events fail to occur in these erb1 mutants: association of twelve different assembly factors with domain V of 25S rRNA, including the neighborhood surrounding the peptidyl transferase center, and stable association of ribosomal proteins with rRNA surrounding the polypeptide exit tunnel. This suggests that successful initiation of construction of these functional centers is a checkpoint for committing to spacer removal.
