Essential role of the amino-terminal region of Drosha for the Microprocessor function.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Drosha is a core component of the Microprocessor complex that cleaves primary-microRNAs (pri-miRNAs) to generate precursor-miRNA and regulates the expression of ∼80 ribosomal protein (RP) genes. Despite the fact that mutations in the amino-terminal region of Drosha (Drosha-NTR) are associated with a vascular disorder, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, the precise function of Drosha-NTR remains unclear. By deleting exon 5 from the Drosha gene and generating a Drosha mutant lacking the NTR (ΔN), we demonstrate that ΔN is unable to process pri-miRNAs, which leads to a global miRNA depletion, except for the miR-183/96/182 cluster. We find that Argonaute 2 facilitates the processing of the pri-miR-183/96/182 in ΔN cells. Unlike full-length Drosha, ΔN is not degraded under serum starvation, resulting in unregulated RP biogenesis and protein synthesis in ΔN cells, allowing them to evade growth arrest. This study reveals the essential role of Drosha-NTR in miRNA production and nutrient-dependent translational control.
