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 wild-type form of p53 contains an intrinsic 3'-5'-exonuclease activity. As p53 forms a complex with DNA polymerase alpha-primase (pol-prim) in vivo this finding suggests that p53 might cooperate with pol-prim to stabilize the genetic information of living cells. To test this hypothesis, exonuclease-free DNA pol-prim was expressed alone or together with p53 for purification. Pol-prim formed a complex with p53, which was purified by ion exchange and immunoaffinity chromatography from baculovirus-infected insect cells. The p53-containing pol-prim fractions removed a 3'-unpaired nucleotide with a 1.5-2-fold higher rate than a paired nucleotide, whereas the four subunit pol-prim did not have any exonuclase activity. Therefore, only p53/pol-prim was able to elongate a primer-template that contained a 3'-unpaired primer end in vitro. To achieve this, the 3'-5'-exonuclease activity of p53 excised the unpaired nucleotide at the 3'-end of the primer and created a paired 3'-end, which pol-prim was able to elongate. The exonuclease activity of p53 as well as the elongation of a primer with a mispaired 3'-end was inhibited specifically by the anti-p53 monoclonal antibodies PAb240 and PAb421.
