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

TopBP1 has eight BRCT [BRCA1 (breast-cancer susceptibility gene 1) C-terminus] domains and is involved in initiating DNA replication, and DNA damage checkpoint signalling and repair. Several BRCT-domain-containing proteins involved in mediating DNA repair have transcriptional regulatory domains, and as demonstrated for BRCA1 these regulatory domains are important in mediating the functions of these proteins. These transcriptional regulatory processes involve modification of chromatin, and recent evidence has clearly demonstrated that the ability to modify chromatin plays an important role in regulating DNA damage signalling and repair. Here we report the identification of a TopBP1 transcriptional activation domain that is rich in hydrophobic residues, interspersed with acidic amino acids, characteristics that are typical of transcriptional activation domains identified previously. Two adjacent repressor domains encoded by BRCT2 and BRCT5 silence this activator and experiments suggest that these repressors actively recruit repressor complexes. Both the activator and BRCT2 repressor domains function in yeast. The present study identifies several chromatin modification domains encoded by TopBP1, and the implications of these findings are discussed in the context of the DNA damage response and the understanding of TopBP1 function.
