Distinct uS11/Rps14 interactions with the translation preinitiation complex differentially alter the accuracy of start codon recognition.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The eukaryotic 43S pre-initiation complex (PIC), containing methionyl initiator transfer RNA (Met-tRNAiMet) in a ternary complex (TC) with eIF2-GTP, scans the messenger RNA (mRNA) leader for an AUG start codon in favorable "Kozak" context. Recognition of AUG triggers the rearrangement of the PIC from an open scanning conformation to a closed arrested state with more tightly bound Met-tRNAiMet. Cryo-EM reconstructions of yeast PICs suggest remodeling of the interaction between 40S protein uS11/Rps14 with ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and mRNA between open and closed states; however, its importance in start codon recognition was unknown. uS11/Rps14-L137 substitutions disrupting rRNA contacts favored in the open complex increase initiation at suboptimal sites, and L137E stabilizes TC binding to PICs reconstituted in vitro with a UUG start codon, all indicating inappropriate rearrangement to the closed state at suboptimal initiation sites. Conversely, uS11/Rps14-R135 and -R136 substitutions perturbing interactions with rRNA exclusively in the closed state confer the opposite phenotypes of initiation hyperaccuracy, and for R135E, accelerated TC dissociation from reconstituted PICs. Thus, distinct interactions of uS11/Rps14 with rRNA stabilize first the open and then the closed conformation of the PIC to influence the accuracy of initiation in vivo.
