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

Heteroduplex joints represent intermediates of Rad51-dependent recombination processes, which are recognized by p53 with extremely high affinities, in a manner independent of the DNA sequence content. To determine the structural elements required for complex formation, we monitored DNA-binding by protection against restriction endonuclease cleavage. We show that wild-type (wt) p53 interacts with heteroduplex joints in the proximity of the flexible junction. Association of p53 within this junction region was also observed with preformed Rad51-heteroduplex complexes, whereas SSB counteracted p53 binding. At a distance of 31 bp from the junction p53 established very few contacts with the heteroduplex, despite the presence of an A-G mismatch. Consistently, p53-dependent exonucleolytic degradation decreased when we raised the distance between the junction and the heteroduplex terminus by 27 bp. Different from the cancer-related mutant p53(273H), which did not recognize the junction, tetramerization defective p53-1262 was protection competent but displayed reduced complex stability in gel shifts. Moreover, p53-1262 performed exonucleolytic activities towards ssDNA like wtp53, but reduced degradation of heteroduplex joints. These results suggest that during recombination wild-type p53, as a tetramer, stably binds to strand transfer regions, enabling the protein to exonucleolytically correct heteroduplex intermediates early after strand invasion.
