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

Studies on the CDC6 protein, which is crucial to the control of DNA replication in yeast and animal cells, are lacking in plants. We have isolated an Arabidopsis cDNA encoding the AtCDC6 protein and studied its possible connection to the occurrence of developmentally regulated endoreplication cycles. The AtCDC6 gene is expressed maximally in early S-phase, and its promoter contains an E2F consensus site that mediates the binding of a plant E2F/DP complex. Transgenic plants carrying an AtCDC6 promoter-beta-glucuronidase fusion revealed that it is active in proliferating cells and, interestingly, in endoreplicating cells. In particular, the extra endoreplication cycle that occurs in dark-grown hypocotyl cells is associated with upregulation of the AtCDC6 gene. This was corroborated using ctr1 Arabidopsis mutants altered in their endoreplication pattern. The ectopic expression of AtCDC6 in transgenic plants induced endoreplication and produced a change in the somatic ploidy level. AtCDC6 was degraded in a ubiquitin- and proteosome-dependent manner by extracts from proliferating cells, but it was degraded poorly by extracts from dark-grown hypocotyl endoreplicating cells. Our results indicate that endoreplication is associated with expression of the AtCDC6 gene and, most likely, the stability of its product; it also apparently requires activation of the retinoblastoma/E2F/DP pathway. These conclusions may apply to endoreplicating cells in other tissues of the plant and to endoreplicating cells in other eukaryotes.
