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

A site-specific replication terminator, RTS1, is present at the Schizosaccharomyces pombe mating-type locus mat1. RTS1 regulates the direction of replication at mat1, optimizing mating-type switching that occurs as a replication-coupled recombination event. Here we show that RTS1 contains two cis-acting sequences that cooperate for efficient replication termination. First, a sequence of approximately 450 bp containing four repeated 55 bp motifs is essential for function. Secondly, a purine-rich sequence of approximately 60 bp without intrinsic activity, located proximal to the repeats, acts cooperatively to increase barrier activity 4-fold. Our data suggest that the trans-acting factors rtf1p and rtf2p act through the repeated motifs and the purine-rich element, respectively. Thus, efficient site-specific replication termination at RTS1 occurs by a complex mechanism involving several cis-acting sequences and trans-acting factors. Interestingly, RTS1 displays similarities to mammalian rDNA replication barriers.
