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

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an invaluable model in the study of mitochondrial tRNA biology. Yet the positions of modified bases in all yeast mitochondrially encoded tRNAs (mt-tRNAs) are still not fully mapped. We performed Nanopore direct RNA sequencing (DRS) on tRNAs from the crude mitochondrial fraction of yeast to map base modifications across all 24 mt-tRNA isoacceptors. Additionally, we adapted the "D-seq" method to detect dihydrouridine sites in tRNAs, where chemical reduction of dihydrouridine causes disruptions to reverse transcription. We mapped dihydrouridine, pseudouridine, and N2-dimethylguanosine sites in mt-tRNAs using DRS, tRNA-D-seq, and knockouts of five conserved tRNA-modifying enzymes. Our results establish Dus1 and Dus2 as the enzymes responsible for D14, D16, D17, D17a, and D20 formation in S. cerevisiae mt-tRNAs. We provide evidence of interactions between Dus1, Dus2, and Trm1-catalyzed modifications, and the influence of Ψ55 promoting m5U54 in mt-tRNAs. These findings expand our understanding of mt-tRNA base modifications and their interdependence, and advance opportunities for the yeast model to investigate defects in human mt-tRNA function.
