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

A disease-causing G-to-T transversion at position +6 of BRCA1 exon 18 induces exclusion of the exon from the mRNA and, as has been suggested by in silico analysis, disrupts an ASF/SF2-dependent splicing enhancer. We show here using a pulldown assay with an internal standard that wild-type (WT) and mutant T6 sequences displayed similar ASF/SF2 binding efficiencies, which were significantly lower than that of a typical exonic splicing enhancer derived from the extra domain A exon of fibronectin. Overexpression or small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated depletion of ASF/SF2 did not affect the splicing of a WT BRCA1 minigene but resulted in an increase and decrease of T6 exon 18 inclusion, respectively. Furthermore, extensive mutation analysis using hybrid minigenes indicated that the T6 mutant creates a sequence with a prevalently inhibitory function. Indeed, RNA-protein interaction and siRNA experiments showed that the skipping of T6 BRCA1 exon 18 is due to the creation of a splicing factor-dependent silencer. This sequence specifically binds to the known repressor protein hnRNPA1/A2 and to DAZAP1, the involvement of which in splicing inhibition we have demonstrated. Our results indicate that the binding of the splicing factors hnRNPA1/A2 and DAZAP1 is the primary determinant of T6 BRCA1 exon 18 exclusion.
