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

This study evaluates the potential of pseudocomplementary peptide nucleic acids (pcPNAs) for sequence-specific modification of enzyme activity towards double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). To this end, we analyze the ability of pcPNA-dsDNA complexes to site-selectively interfere with the action of four type IIs restriction enzymes. We have found that pcPNA-dsDNA complexes exhibit a different degree of DNA protection against cleaving/nicking activity of various isoschizomeric endonucleases under investigation (PleI, MlyI and N.BstNBI) depending on their type and mutual arrangement of PNA-binding and enzyme recognition/cleavage sites. We have also found that the pcPNA targeting to closely located PleI or BbsI recognition sites on dsDNA generates in some cases the nicking activity of these DNA cutters. At the same time, MlyI endonuclease, a PleI isoschizomer, does not exhibit any DNA nicking/cleavage activity, being completely blocked by the nearby pcPNA binding. Our results have general implications for effective pcPNA interference with the performance of DNA-processing proteins, thus being important for prospective applications of pcPNAs.
