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

Rev1 is a eukaryotic DNA polymerase that rescues replication forks stalled at sites of DNA damage by inserting nucleotides opposite the damaged template bases. Yeast genetic studies suggest that Rev1 plays an important role in rescuing replication forks stalled at one of the most common forms of DNA damage, an abasic site; however, steady state kinetic studies suggest that an abasic site acts as a significant block to nucleotide incorporation by Rev1. Here we examined the pre-steady state kinetics of nucleotide incorporation by yeast Rev1 with damaged and non-damaged DNA substrates. We found that yeast Rev1 is capable of rapid nucleotide incorporation, but only a small fraction of the protein molecules possessed this robust activity. We characterized the nucleotide incorporation by the catalytically robust fraction of yeast Rev1 and found that it efficiently incorporated dCTP opposite a template abasic site under pre-steady state conditions. We conclude from these studies that the abasic site is a cognate lesion for Rev1.
