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

In squid (Loligo bleekeri) mitochondria, the two 3'-terminal nucleotides (G72-G73) of the tRNA(Tyr) gene overlap with the two 5'-terminal nucleotides (G1-G2) of the downstream tRNA(Cys) gene. To elucidate the processing mechanism(s) of the tRNA molecules derived from this region, tRNAs were analyzed by sequencing cDNAs synthesized from circularized tRNAs. Nucleotides G1-G2 in tRNA(Cys) appeared to be without post-transcriptional conversion, whereas CCA was post-transcriptionally added to the 3'-terminus. In contrast, in the majority of tRNAs(Tyr), G72-G73 were found to be converted to A72-A73, accompanied by the CCA addition. These results indicate that a precursor of tRNA(Tyr) is processed at U71 and two adenosines are attached prior to the CCA addition. Thus, we suggest that 5' processing of the precursor tRNA dominates 3' processing and maturation of the tRNA is mediated by a polyadenylylation enzyme in the mitochondria, a scenario which is consistent with the editing process proposed in land snail mitochondria. We also obtained intermediates, such as a premature tRNA lacking CCA that terminated at U71 and one with a single adenosine attached at position 72, which support the suggested maturation process. However, although we failed to detect a tRNA(Cys) lacking G1-G2 at the 5'-terminus, we obtained cDNAs for tRNA(Tyr) with G72-G73 and the CCA terminus. This inconsistent result suggests the co-existence of another process(es) in the maturation of these tRNA molecules in squid mitochondria.
