The quantitative impact of 3'UTRs on gene expression.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Control of gene expression is fundamental to biology, and post-transcriptional regulation is an important component of this process. In mammals, the 3'UTR in particular serves as a major source of regulatory information within the transcript. Here we developed an accurate massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) system to evaluate the impact of >1400 full-length human 3'UTRs on RNA abundance, stability, translational regulation, and total protein output. We demonstrated that our MPRA is consistent with regulation of the corresponding endogenous transcripts. We used the MPRA datasets to model the relative contributions of RNA abundance and translational efficiency toward total 3'UTR-mediated regulation, revealing an unexpectedly large role for 3'UTR-specified translational control, and providing additional evidence that much of 3'UTR-encoded regulation is mediated by concerted regulation of translation plus decay. We observed relationships between GC content and 3'UTR length and different modes of regulation, and identified sequence motifs corresponding to regulatory RNA-binding proteins associated with mediating 3'UTR-dependent gene expression. We compared regulation from >1400 3'UTRs under control of two dissimilar promoters, which revealed promoter-associated differences in post-transcriptional regulation for certain 3'UTRs. Together, this dataset represents a comprehensive characterization of 3'UTR-mediated quantitative regulation.
