Cleavage sequence specificity of Nsp15.
Article in RNA biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Nsp15 is an EndoU nuclease that is partially responsible for SARS-CoV-2's ability to evade the immune system response. Despite its importance, the sequence specificity of Nsp15 remains difficult to fully determine. In this work, we use a systematic approach to measure Nsp15's sequence specificity by testing all 16 dinucleotides for cleavage activity. The results show a preference for uridine in the first dinucleotide position, but with varying specificity in the second position. Using Alphafold3 predictions to examine the structural basis of this specificity suggests important contacts 3' of the dinucleotide sequence as well as contacts to the dinucleotides that agree with the cleavage specificity.
