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

Translation initiation factor eIF4E forms eIF4E-eIF4G complex at the 5' cap of mRNA. This interaction can be inhibited by the family of 4E-binding proteins (4E-BP). In yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, two 4E-BPs, Caf20 and Eap1, compete with eIF4G for binding to eIF4E via the shared conserved interaction motif. In order to investigate the roles of Caf20 in gene-specific translational regulation and the formation of mRNA granules (P-bodies), we introduced substitution mutations, caf20-Y4A or caf20-L9A, in the eIF4E-binding motif for CAF20. Overexpression of the wild-type CAF20 showed an increased protein level of Ste12 transcription factor as well as highly developed P-body formation. However, 4E-binding site mutations of CAF20 led to a reduced number of P-body foci and decreased levels of Ste12 protein. The phenotypes of the caf20 deletion mutation were also analyzed, and we suggest that Caf20 plays a critical role in Ste12 protein expression and in the control of P-body formation.
