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

Serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins are conserved splicing regulators that play important roles in plant stress responses, namely those mediated by the abscisic acid (ABA) hormone. The Arabidopsis thaliana SR-like protein SR45 is a described negative regulator of the ABA pathway during early seedling development. How the inhibition of growth by ABA signaling is counteracted to maintain plant development under stress conditions remains largely unknown. Here, we show that SR45 overexpression reduces Arabidopsis sensitivity to ABA during early seedling development. Biochemical and confocal microscopy analyses of transgenic plants expressing fluorescently tagged SR45 revealed that exposure to ABA dephosphorylates the protein at multiple amino acid residues and leads to its accumulation, due to SR45 stabilization via reduced ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Using phosphomutant and phosphomimetic transgenic Arabidopsis lines, we demonstrate the functional relevance of ABA-mediated dephosphorylation of a single SR45 residue, T264, in antagonizing SR45 ubiquitination and degradation to promote its function as a repressor of seedling ABA sensitivity. Our results reveal a mechanism that negatively autoregulates ABA signaling and allows early plant growth under stress via posttranslational control of the SR45 splicing factor.
