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

Pre-mRNA splicing is a dynamic, multistep process that is catalyzed by the RNA (ribonucleic acid)-protein complex called the spliceosome. The spliceosome contains a core set of RNAs and proteins that are conserved in all organisms that perform splicing. In higher organisms, peptidyl-prolyl isomerase H (PPIH) directly interacts with the core protein pre-mRNA processing factor 4 (PRPF4) and both integrate into the pre-catalytic spliceosome as part of the tri-snRNP (small nuclear RNA-protein complex) subcomplex. As a first step to understand the protein interactions that dictate PPIH and PRPF4 function, we expressed and purified soluble forms of each protein and formed a complex between them. We found two sites of interaction between PPIH and the N-terminus of PRPF4, an unexpected result. The N-terminus of PRPF4 is an intrinsically disordered region and does not adopt secondary structure in the presence of PPIH. In the absence of an atomic resolution structure, we used mutational analysis to identify point mutations that uncouple these two binding sites and find that mutations in both sites are necessary to break up the complex. A discussion of how this bipartite interaction between PPIH and PRPF4 may modulate spliceosomal function is included.
