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

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Cdc13, Stn1, and Ten1 are essential for both chromosome capping and telomere length homeostasis. These three proteins have been proposed to perform their roles at chromosome termini as a telomere-dedicated t-RPA complex, on the basis of several parallels with the conventional RPA complex. In this study, we have used several approaches to test whether a predicted alpha-helix in the N-terminal domain of the S. cerevisiae Stn1 protein is required for formation of the proposed t-RPA complex, in a manner analogous to the comparable helix in Rpa2. Analysis of a panel of Rpa2-OB(Stn1) chimeras indicates that whether a chimeric protein contains the Rpa2 or Stn1 version of this alpha-helix dictates its ability to function in place of Rpa2 or Stn1, respectively. In addition, mutations introduced into a hydrophobic surface of the predicted Stn1 alpha-helix eliminated association with Ten1. Strikingly, allele-specific suppression of a stn1 mutation in this helix (stn1-L164D) by a ten1 mutation (ten1-D138Y) resulted in a restored Stn1-Ten1 interaction, supporting the identification of a Stn1-Ten1 interface. We conclude that Stn1 interacts with Ten1 through an alpha-helix, in a manner analogous to the interaction between the comparable subunits of the RPA complex.
