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

Replication Protein A (RPA) is required for DNA recombination, repair and replication in all eukaryotes. RPA participation in these pathways is mediated by single-stranded DNA binding and protein interactions. We herein identify a novel protein, Replication Protein Binding Trans-Activator (RBT1), in a yeast two-hybrid assay employing the second subunit of human RPA (RPA32) as bait. RBT1-RPA32 binding was confirmed by glutathione S:-transferase pull-down and co-immunoprecipitation. Fluorescence microscopy indicates that green fluorescence protein-tagged RBT1 is localized to the nucleus in vivo. RBT1 mRNA expression, determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR, is significantly higher in cancer cell lines MCF-7, ZR-75, SaOS-2 and H661, compared to the cell lines normal non-immortalized human mammary epithelial cells and normal non-immortalized human bronchial epithelial cells. Further, yeast and mammalian one-hybrid analysis shows that RBT1 is a strong transcriptional co-activator. Interestingly, mammalian transactivation data is indicative of significant variance between cell lines; the GAL4-RBT1 fusion protein has significantly higher transcriptional activity in human cancer cells compared to human normal primary non-immortalized epithelial cells. We propose that RBT1 is a novel transcriptional co-activator that interacts with RPA, and has significantly higher activity in transformed cells.
