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

Post-replication DNA repair in eukaryotes is regulated by ubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Monoubiquitination catalyzed by RAD6-RAD18 (an E2-E3 complex) stimulates translesion DNA synthesis, whereas polyubiquitination, promoted by additional factors such as MMS2-UBC13 (a UEV-E2 complex) and HLTF (an E3 ligase), leads to template switching in humans. Here, using an in vitro ubiquitination reaction system reconstituted with purified human proteins, we demonstrated that PCNA is polyubiquitinated predominantly via en bloc transfer of a pre-formed ubiquitin (Ub) chain rather than by extension of the Ub chain on monoubiquitinated PCNA. Our results support a model in which HLTF forms a thiol-linked Ub chain on UBC13 (UBC13∼Ubn) and then transfers the chain to RAD6∼Ub, forming RAD6∼Ubn+1. The resultant Ub chain is subsequently transferred to PCNA by RAD18. Thus, template switching may be promoted under certain circumstances in which both RAD18 and HLTF are coordinately recruited to sites of stalled replication.
