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

Human telomerase RNA (hTR) is transcribed as a precursor that is then posttranscriptionally modified and processed. A fraction of the transcripts is oligoadenylated by TRAMP and either processed into the mature hTR or degraded by the exosome. Here, we characterize the processing of 3' extended forms of varying length by PARN and RRP6. We show that tertiary RNA interactions unique to the longer transcripts favor RNA degradation, whereas H/ACA RNP assembly stimulates productive processing. Interestingly, the H/ACA complex actively promotes processing in addition to protecting the mature 3' end. Processing occurs in two steps with longer forms first being trimmed by RRP6 and shorter forms then being processed by PARN. These results reveal how RNA structure and RNP assembly affect the kinetics of processing and degradation and ultimately determine the amount of functional telomerase produced in cells.
