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

From transcription to decay, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) influence RNA metabolism. Using the RBP2GO database that combines proteome-wide RBP screens from 13 species, we investigated the RNA-binding features of 176 896 proteins. By compiling published lists of RNA-binding domains (RBDs) and RNA-related protein family (Rfam) IDs with lists from the InterPro database, we analyzed the distribution of the RBDs and Rfam IDs in RBPs and non-RBPs to select RBDs and Rfam IDs that were enriched in RBPs. We also explored proteins for their content in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) and low complexity regions (LCRs). We found a strong positive correlation between IDRs and RBDs and a co-occurrence of specific LCRs. Our bioinformatic analysis indicated that RBDs/Rfam IDs were strong indicators of the RNA-binding potential of proteins and helped predicting new RBP candidates, especially in less investigated species. By further analyzing RBPs without RBD, we predicted new RBDs that were validated by RNA-bound peptides. Finally, we created the RBP2GO composite score by combining the RBP2GO score with new quality factors linked to RBDs and Rfam IDs. Based on the RBP2GO composite score, we compiled a list of 2018 high-confidence human RBPs. The knowledge collected here was integrated into the RBP2GO database at https://RBP2GO-2-Beta.dkfz.de.
