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

Processing of RNA is a key regulatory mechanism for all living systems. Escherichia coli protein YicC belongs to the well-conserved YicC family and has been identified as a novel ribonuclease. Here, we report a 2.8-Å-resolution crystal structure of the E. coli YicC apo protein and a 3.2-Å-cryo-EM structure of YicC bound to an RNA substrate. The apo YicC forms a dimer of trimers with a large open channel. In the RNA-bound form, the top trimer of YicC rotates nearly 70° and closes the RNA substrate inside the cavity to form a clamshell-pearl conformation that resembles no other known RNases. The structural information combined with mass spectrometry and biochemical data identified cleavage on the upstream side of an RNA hairpin. Mutagenesis studies demonstrated that the previously uncharacterized domain, DUF1732, is critical in both RNA binding and catalysis. These studies shed light on the mechanism of the previously unexplored YicC RNase family.
