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

Previously, combined loss of different anticodon loop modifications was shown to impair the function of distinct tRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Surprisingly, each scenario resulted in shared cellular phenotypes, the basis of which is unclear. Since loss of tRNA modification may evoke transcriptional responses, we characterized global transcription patterns of modification mutants with defects in either tRNAGlnUUG or tRNALysUUU function. We observe that the mutants share inappropriate induction of multiple starvation responses in exponential growth phase, including derepression of glucose and nitrogen catabolite-repressed genes. In addition, autophagy is prematurely and inadequately activated in the mutants. We further demonstrate that improper induction of individual starvation genes as well as the propensity of the tRNA modification mutants to form protein aggregates are diminished upon overexpression of tRNAGlnUUG or tRNALysUUU, the tRNA species that lack the modifications of interest. Hence, our data suggest that global alterations in mRNA translation and proteostasis account for the transcriptional stress signatures that are commonly triggered by loss of anticodon modifications in different tRNAs.
