Molecular basis of A. thaliana KEOPS complex in biosynthesizing tRNA t6A.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2024. 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
In archaea and eukaryotes, the evolutionarily conserved KEOPS is composed of four core subunits-Kae1, Bud32, Cgi121 and Pcc1, and a fifth Gon7/Pcc2 that is found in fungi and metazoa. KEOPS cooperates with Sua5/YRDC to catalyze the biosynthesis of tRNA N6-threonylcarbamoyladenosine (t6A), an essential modification needed for fitness of cellular organisms. Biochemical and structural characterizations of KEOPSs from archaea, yeast and humans have determined a t6A-catalytic role for Kae1 and auxiliary roles for other subunits. However, the precise molecular workings of KEOPSs still remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the biochemical functions of A. thaliana KEOPS and determined a cryo-EM structure of A. thaliana KEOPS dimer. We show that A. thaliana KEOPS is composed of KAE1, BUD32, CGI121 and PCC1, which adopts a conserved overall arrangement. PCC1 dimerization leads to a KEOPS dimer that is needed for an active t6A-catalytic KEOPS-tRNA assembly. BUD32 participates in direct binding of tRNA to KEOPS and modulates the t6A-catalytic activity of KEOPS via its C-terminal tail and ATP to ADP hydrolysis. CGI121 promotes the binding of tRNA to KEOPS and potentiates the t6A-catalytic activity of KEOPS. These data and findings provide insights into mechanistic understanding of KEOPS machineries.
