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

The tumor suppressor p53 regulates cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by transactivating several genes that are critical for these processes. The transcriptional activity of p53 is often regulated by post-translational modifications and its interactions with various transcriptional coactivators. Here we report a physical interaction between the N-terminal transactivation domain (TAD) of p53 and the C-terminal DNA-binding domain of positive cofactor 4 (PC4(CTD)). Using NMR spectroscopy, we showed that residues 35-57 (TAD2) interact with PC4. (15)N,(1)H HSQC and fluorescence competition experiments indicated that TAD binds to the DNA-binding site of PC4. Hepta-phosphorylation of the TAD peptide increased its binding affinity. Computer modeling of the p53N-PC4 complex revealed several important interactions that are reminiscent of those in the single-stranded DNA-PC4 complex. The ubiquitous nature of the acidic transactivation domain of p53 in mediating interactions with several transcription cofactors is also manifested as a DNA mimetic.
