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 bZIP60, XBP1 and HAC1 mRNAs encode transcription factors that mediate the unfolded protein response (UPR) in plants, animals and yeasts, respectively. Upon UPR, these mRNAs undergo unconventional cytoplasmic splicing on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to produce active transcription factors. Although cytoplasmic splicing is conserved, the ER targeting mechanism differs between XBP1 and HAC1. The ER targeting of HAC1 mRNA occurs before translation, whereas that of XBP1 mRNA involves a ribosome-nascent chain complex that is stalled when a hydrophobic peptide emerges from the ribosome; the corresponding mechanism is unknown for bZIP60. Here, we analyzed ribosome stalling on bZIP60 orthologs of plants. Using a cell-free translation system, we detected nascent peptide-mediated ribosome stalling during the translation elongation of the mRNAs of Arabidopsis, rice and Physcomitrium (moss) orthologs, and the termination-step stalling in the Selaginella (lycopod) ortholog, all of which occurred ∼50 amino acids downstream of a hydrophobic region. Transfection experiments showed that ribosome stalling contributes to cytoplasmic splicing in bZIP60u orthologs of Arabidopsis and Selaginella. In contrast, ribosome stalling was undetectable for liverwort, Klebsormidium (basal land plant), and green algae orthologs. This study highlights the evolutionary diversity of ribosome stalling and its contribution to ER targeting in plants.
