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 ribosome is assembled in a complex process mainly taking place in the nucleus. Consequently, newly synthesized ribosomal proteins have to travel from the cytoplasm into the nucleus, where they are incorporated into nascent ribosomal subunits. In this study, we set out to investigate the mechanism mediating nuclear import of the small subunit ribosomal protein Rps2. We demonstrate that an internal region in Rps2, ranging from amino acids 76 to 145, is sufficient to target a 3xyEGFP reporter to the nucleus. The importin-β Pse1 interacts with this Rps2 region and is involved in its import, with Rps2 residues arginine 95, arginine 97, and lysine 99 being important determinants for both Pse1 binding and nuclear localization. Moreover, our data reveal a second import mechanism involving the N-terminal region of Rps2, which depends on the presence of basic residues within amino acids 10 to 28. This Rps2 segment overlaps with the binding site of the dedicated chaperone Tsr4; however, the nuclear import of Rps2 via the internal as well as the N-terminal nuclear-targeting element does not depend on Tsr4. Taken together, our study has unveiled hitherto undescribed nuclear import signals, showcasing the versatility of the mechanisms coordinating the nuclear import of ribosomal proteins.
