Brr2p-mediated unwinding of U4/U6 is promoted by a mutually exclusive intra-molecular stem loop in U4 and involves destabilization of the 5' stem-loop of U4.

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

Before the spliceosome engages a pre-mRNA to excise its introns, the catalytic small nuclear RNA (snRNA) U6 is inactive because of base pairing with U4 snRNA; thus, spliceosome activation requires unwinding of base paired U4/U6, composed of stem I and stem II. The Ski2-like ATPase and RNA helicase Brr2p facilitates U4/U6 unwinding and the ultimately irreversible release of U4; however, the molecular mechanism behind Brr2p-mediated U4/U6 unwinding and the roles of the snRNAs in unwinding remains incompletely understood. To investigate the mechanism in vivo in budding yeast, we screened an unwinding deficient, cold-sensitive
