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

Eukaryotic DNA replication is a complex process requiring the proper functioning of a multitude of proteins to create error-free daughter DNA strands and maintain genome integrity. Even though synthesis and joining of Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand involves only half the DNA in the nucleus, the complexity associated with processing these fragments is about twice that needed for leading strand synthesis. Flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) is the central component of the Okazaki fragment maturation pathway. FEN1 cleaves flaps that are displaced by DNA polymerase delta (pol delta), to create a nick that is effectively joined by DNA ligase I. The Pif1 helicase and Dna2 helicase/nuclease contribute to the maturation process by elongating the flap displaced by pol delta. Though the reason for generating long flaps is still a matter of debate, genetic studies have shown that Dna2 and Pif1 are both important components of DNA replication. Our current knowledge of the exact enzymatic steps that govern Okazaki fragment maturation has heavily derived from reconstitution reactions in vitro, which have augmented genetic information, to yield current mechanistic models. In this review, we describe both the design of specific DNA substrates that simulate intermediates of fragment maturation and protocols for reconstituting partial and complete lagging strand replication.
