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 BRCT regions are two repeating structures at BRCA1 carboxyl-terminus and are ubiquitous in some proteins involved in DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoints. It was shown that BRCTs of TopBP1, BRCA1, and BRCT-Ws of Rb bound DNA ends and breaks. We indicate here that the C-terminus of p53 tumor suppressor contains a DNA binding motif (residues 327-333 in human), whose features are similar to those of the part of BRCT-W in Rb with DNA binding activity. The short motif was required for the gel retardation activity of DNA fragments, since residues 311-333 showed the activity while residues 311-326 showed no activity. Significant numbers of total p53 and its fragments with the motif formed multimerizing complexes and associated with DNA ends and breaks. These results suggest the common presence of DNA binding motifs that can recognize DNA ends or damages in major tumor suppressors, Rb, BRCA1 and p53. The oncogenic activity of p53 C-terminus (residues 311-393) required both the DNA damage recognition motif and the repair enzyme-associating domain.
