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

For initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication the origin recognition complex (ORC) associates with chromatin sites and constitutes a landing pad allowing Cdc6, Cdt1 and MCM proteins to accomplish the pre-replication complex (pre-RC). In S phase, the putative MCM helicase is assumed to move away from the ORC to trigger DNA unwinding. By using the fluorescence-based assays bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) we show in live mammalian cells that one key interaction in pre-RC assembly, the interaction between Orc2 and Orc3, is not restricted to the nucleus but also occurs in the cytoplasm. BRET assays also revealed a direct interaction between Orc2 and nuclear localization signal (NLS)-depleted Orc3. Further, we assessed the subcellular distribution of Orc2 and Orc3 in relation to MCM proteins Mcm3 and Mcm6 as well as to a key protein involved in elongation of DNA replication, proliferating nuclear cell antigen (PCNA). Our findings illustrate the spatial complexity of the elaborated process of DNA replication as well as that the BRET and BiFC techniques are novel tools that could contribute to our understanding of the processes at the very beginning of the duplication of the genome.
