Analysis of one-sided marker segregation patterns resulting from mammalian gene targeting.

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.
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 double-strand break repair (DSBR) model is currently accepted as the paradigm for acts of double-strand break (DSB) repair that lead to crossing over between homologous sequences. The DSBR model predicts that asymmetric heteroduplex DNA (hDNA) will form on both sides of the DSB (two-sided events; 5:3/5:3 segregation). In contrast, in yeast and mammalian cells, a considerable fraction of recombinants are one sided: they display full conversion (6:2 segregation) or half-conversion (5:3 segregation) on one side of the DSB together with normal 4:4 segregation on the other side of the DSB. Two mechanisms have been proposed to account for these observations: (i) hDNA formation is restricted to one side of the DSB or the other, and (ii) recombination is initially two sided, but hDNA repair directed by Holliday junction cuts restores normal 4:4 segregation on that side of the DSB in which the mismatch is closest to the cut junction initiating repair. In this study, we exploited a well-characterized gene-targeting assay to test the predictions that these mechanisms make with respect to the frequency of recombinants displaying 4:4 marker segregation on one side of the DSB. Unexpectedly, the results do not support the predictions of either mechanism. We propose a derivation of mechanism (ii) in which the nicks arising from Holliday junction cleavage are not equivalent with respect to directing repair of adjacent hDNA, possibly as a result of asynchronous cleavage of the DSBR intermediate.
