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.

Abstract

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) has no intrinsic enzymatic function, but functions as a sliding platform to mediate protein interactions with the DNA strand. Many proteins interact with PCNA through a small conserved motif with consensus QxxLxxFF. This work uses Schizosaccharomyces pombe and human cells to analyse the function of PCNA-binding peptides. Interacting peptides were identified using two-hybrid screening; one (pep102) binds directly to a physiologically relevant site on PCNA. The EGFP-pep102 overexpression phenotype is consistent with competitive blocking of PCNA-protein interactions. Various PCNA-binding peptides were all shown to inhibit PCNA function by competitive binding in both human and S. pombe cells as EGFP fusion proteins. The action of a p21(WAF1/Cip1)-derived peptide was complicated by the presence of additional functional domains and possible post-translational modification. The activity of pep102 was hampered by low expression in both model systems. The peptide derived from rational design (con1) was stable, highly active in inhibiting PCNA function both S. pombe and human cells and showed a high affinity for PCNA both in vitro and in vivo. These results validate the use of functional screening in yeast to identify peptide aptamers that are functional in mammalian cells; such aptamers provide excellent leads for small molecule antiproliferative therapies.
