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

RNase MRP is an essential eukaryotic ribonucleoprotein complex involved in the maturation of rRNA and the regulation of the cell cycle. RNase MRP is related to the ribozyme-based RNase P, but it has evolved to have distinct cellular roles. We report a cryo-EM structure of the S. cerevisiae RNase MRP holoenzyme solved to 3.0 Å. We describe the structure of this 450 kDa complex, interactions between its components, and the organization of its catalytic RNA. We show that some of the RNase MRP proteins shared with RNase P undergo an unexpected RNA-driven remodeling that allows them to bind to divergent RNAs. Further, we reveal how this RNA-driven protein remodeling, acting together with the introduction of new auxiliary elements, results in the functional diversification of RNase MRP and its progenitor, RNase P, and demonstrate structural underpinnings of the acquisition of new functions by catalytic RNPs.
