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

Functional characterization of the transcriptome requires tools for the systematic investigation of RNA post-transcriptional modifications. 2΄-O-methylation (2΄-OMe) of the ribose moiety is one of the most abundant post-transcriptional modifications of RNA, although its systematic analysis is difficult due to the lack of reliable high-throughput mapping methods. We describe here a novel high-throughput approach, named 2OMe-seq, that enables fast and accurate mapping at single-base resolution, and relative quantitation, of 2΄-OMe modified residues. We compare our method to other state-of-art approaches, and show that it achieves higher sensitivity and specificity. By applying 2OMe-seq to HeLa cells, we show that it is able to recover the majority of the annotated 2΄-OMe sites on ribosomal RNA. By performing knockdown of the Fibrillarin methyltransferase in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) we show the ability of 2OMe-seq to capture 2΄-O-Methylation level variations. Moreover, using 2OMe-seq data we here report the discovery of 12 previously unannotated 2΄-OMe sites across 18S and 28S rRNAs, 11 of which are conserved in both human and mouse cells, and assigned the respective snoRNAs for all sites. Our approach expands the repertoire of methods for transcriptome-wide mapping of RNA post-transcriptional modifications, and promises to provide novel insights into the role of this modification.
