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

Long terminal repeat (LTR)-retrotransposons are significant contributors to the evolution and diversity of eukaryotic genomes. Their RNA genomes (gRNA) serve as a template for protein synthesis and reverse transcription to a DNA copy, which can integrate into the host genome. Here, we used the SHAPE-MaP strategy to explore Ty3 retrotransposon gRNA structure in yeast and under cell-free conditions. Our study reveals the structural dynamics of Ty3 gRNA and the well-folded core, formed independently of the cellular environment. Based on the detailed map of Ty3 gRNA structure, we characterized the structural context of cis-acting sequences involved in reverse transcription and frameshifting. We also identified a novel functional sequence as a potential initiator for Ty3 gRNA dimerization. Our data indicate that the dimer is maintained by direct interaction between short palindromic sequences at the 5' ends of the two Ty3 gRNAs, resembling the model characteristic for other retroelements like HIV-1 and Ty1. This work points out a range of cell-dependent and -independent Ty3 gRNA structural changes that provide a solid background for studies on RNA structure-function relationships important for retroelement biology.
