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

The U1 snRNP-specific protein C contains an N-terminal zinc finger-like CH motif which is required for the binding of the U1C protein to the U1 snRNP particle. Recently a similar motif was reported to be essential for in vivo homodimerization of the yeast splicing factor PRP9. In the present study we demonstrate that the human U1C protein is able to form homodimers as well. U1C homodimers are found when (i) the human U1C protein is expressed in Escherichia coli, (ii) immunoprecipitations with anti-U1C antibodies are performed on in vitro translated U1C, and when (iii) the yeast two hybrid system is used. Analyses of mutant U1C proteins in an in vitro dimerization assay and the yeast two hybrid system revealed that amino acids within the CH motif, i.e. between positions 22 and 30, are required for homodimerization.
