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 infectious bursal diseases virus (IBDV) polymerase, VP1 protein, is responsible for transcription, initial translation and viral genomic replication. Knowledge about the new kind of post-translational modification of VP1 supports identification of novel drugs against the virus. Because the arginine residue is known to be methylated by protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) enzyme, we investigated whether IBDV VP1 is a substrate for known PRMTs. In this study, we show that VP1 is specifically associated with and methylated by PRMT5 at the arginine 426 (R426) residue. IBDV infection causes the accumulation of PRMT5 in the cytoplasm, which colocalizes with VP1 as a punctate structure. In addition, ectopic expression of PRMT5 significantly enhances the viral replication. In the presence of PMRT5, enzyme inhibitor and knockout of PRMT5 remarkably decreased viral replication. The polymerase activity of VP1 was severely damaged when R426 mutated to alanine, resulting in impaired viral replication. Our study reports a novel form of post-translational modification of VP1, which supports its polymerase function to facilitate the viral replication.
