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

The eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) complex is involved in every step of translation initiation, but there is limited understanding of its molecular functions. Here, we present a single particle electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM) reconstruction of yeast 48S ribosomal preinitiation complex (PIC) in an open conformation conducive to scanning, with core subunit eIF3b bound on the 40S interface near the decoding center in contact with the ternary complex eIF2·GTP·initiator tRNA. eIF3b is relocated together with eIF3i from their solvent interface locations observed in other PIC structures, with eIF3i lacking 40S contacts. Re-processing of micrographs of our previous 48S PIC in a closed state also suggests relocation of the entire eIF3b-3i-3g-3a-Cter module during the course of initiation. Genetic analysis indicates that high fidelity initiation depends on eIF3b interactions at the 40S subunit interface that promote the closed PIC conformation, or facilitate the relocation of eIF3b/eIF3i to the solvent interface, on start codon selection.
