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

Bacterial ribonuclease E (RNase E) plays a crucial role in the processing and decay of RNAs. A small protein named RraA negatively regulates the activity of RNase E via protein-protein interaction in various bacteria. Recently, RraAS1 and RraAS2, which are functional homologs of RraA from Escherichia coli, were identified in the Gram-positive species Streptomyces coelicolor. RraAS1 and RraAS2 inhibit RNase ES ribonuclease activity in S. coelicolor. RraAS1 and RraAS2 have a C-terminal extension region unlike typical bacterial RraA proteins. In this study, we present the crystal structure of RraAS2, exhibiting a hexamer arranged in a dimer of trimers, consistent with size exclusion chromatographic results. Importantly, the C-terminal extension region formed a long α-helix at the junction of the neighboring subunit, which is similar to the trimeric RraA orthologs from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Truncation of the C-terminal extension region resulted in loss of RNase ES inhibition, demonstrating its crucial role. Our findings present the first bacterial RraA that has a hexameric assembly with a C-terminal extension α-helical region, which plays an essential role in the regulation of RNase ES activity in S. coelicolor.
