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

Deinococcus radiodurans, a radiation-resistant bacterium, harbors a multipartite genome. Chromosome I contains three putative centromeres (segS1, segS2, and segS3), and ParA (ParA1) and ParB (ParB1) homologues. The ParB1 interaction with segS was sequence specific, and ParA1 was shown to be a DNA binding ATPase. The ATPase activity of ParA1 was stimulated when segS elements were coincubated with ParB1, but the greatest increase was observed with segS3. ParA1 incubated with the segS-ParB1 complex showed increased light scattering in the absence of ATP. In the presence of ATP, this increase was continued with segS1-ParA1B1 and segS2-ParA1B1 complexes, while it decreased rapidly after an initial increase for 30 min in the case of segS3. D. radiodurans cells expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP)-ParB1 produced foci on nucleoids, and the ΔparB1 mutant showed growth retardation and ∼13%-higher anucleation than the wild type. Unstable mini-F plasmids carrying segS1 and segS2 showed inheritance in Escherichia coli without ParA1B1, while segS3-mediated plasmid stability required the in trans expression of ParA1B1. Unlike untransformed E. coli cells, cells harboring pDAGS3, a plasmid carrying segS3 and also expressing ParB1-GFP, produced discrete GFP foci on nucleoids. These findings suggested that both segS elements and the ParA1B1 proteins of D. radiodurans are functionally active and have a role in genome segregation.
