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

RNA biogenesis and mRNA transport are an intricate process for every eukaryotic cell. SAGA, a transcriptional coactivator and TREX-2 are the two major complexes participate in this process. Sus1 is a transcription export factor and part of both the SAGA and the TREX-2 complex. The competitive exchange of Sus1 molecule between SAGA and TREX-2 complex modulates their function which is credited to structural plasticity of Sus1. Here, we portray the biophysical characterization of Sus1 from S. cerevisiae. The recombinant Sus1 is a α-helical structure which is stable at various pH conditions. We reported the α-helix to β-sheet transition at the low pH as well as at high pH. Sus1 showed 50% reduction in the fluorescence intensity at pH-2 as compared to native protein. The fluorescence studies demonstrated the unfolding of tertiary structure of the protein with variation in pH as compared to neutral pH. The same results were obtained in the ANS binding and acrylamide quenching studies. Similarly, the secondary structure of the Sus1 was found to be stable till 55% alcohol concentration while tertiary structure was stable up to 20% alcohol concentration. Further increase in the alcohol concentration destabilizes the secondary as well as tertiary structure. The 300 mM concentration of ammonium sulfate also stabilizes the secondary structure of the protein. The structural characterization of this protein is expected to unfold the process of the transportation of the mRNA with cooperation of different proteins.
