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

Metabolic labeling of cellular RNA is a powerful approach to investigate RNA biology. In addition to revealing whole transcriptome dynamics, targeted labeling strategies can be used to study individual RNA subpopulations within complex systems. Here, we describe a strategy for cell- and polymerase-selective RNA labeling with 2'-azidocytidine (2'-AzCyd), a modified nucleoside amenable to bioorthogonal labeling with SPAAC chemistry. In contrast to 2'-OH-containing pyrimidine ribonucleosides, which rely upon uridine-cytidine kinase 2 (UCK2) for activation, 2'-AzCyd is phosphorylated by deoxycytidine kinase (dCK), and we find that expression of dCK mediates cell-selective 2'-AzCyd labeling. Further, 2'-AzCyd is primarily incorporated into rRNA and displays low cytotoxicity and high labeling efficiency. We apply our system to analyze the turnover of rRNA during ribophagy induced by oxidative stress or mTOR inhibition to show that 28S and 18S rRNAs undergo accelerated degradation. Taken together, our work provides a general approach for studying dynamic RNA behavior with cell and polymerase specificity and reveals fundamental insights into nucleotide and nucleic acid metabolism.
