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

Spliceosome is often assembled across an exon and undergoes rearrangement to span a neighboring intron. Most states of the intron-defined spliceosome have been structurally characterized. However, the structure of a fully assembled exon-defined spliceosome remains at large. During spliceosome assembly, the pre-catalytic state (B complex) is converted from its precursor (pre-B complex). Here we report atomic structures of the exon-defined human spliceosome in four sequential states: mature pre-B, late pre-B, early B, and mature B. In the previously unknown late pre-B state, U1 snRNP is already released but the remaining proteins are still in the pre-B state; unexpectedly, the RNAs are in the B state, with U6 snRNA forming a duplex with 5'-splice site and U5 snRNA recognizing the 3'-end of the exon. In the early and mature B complexes, the B-specific factors are stepwise recruited and specifically recognize the exon 3'-region. Our study reveals key insights into the assembly of the exon-defined spliceosomes and identifies mechanistic steps of the pre-B-to-B transition.
