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

ALKBH1 (AlkB homologue 1) is a mammalian AlkB (2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase) homologue that possesses AP (abasic or apurinic/apyrimidinic) lyase activity. The AP lyase reaction is catalysed by imine formation with an active site lysine residue, and a covalent intermediate can be trapped in the presence of NaBH4. Surprisingly, ALKBH1 also forms a stable protein-DNA adduct in the absence of a reducing agent. Experiments with different substrates demonstrated that the protein covalently binds to the 5' DNA product, i.e. the fragment containing an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde. The N-terminal domain of ALKBH1 was identified as the main site of linkage with DNA. By contrast, mutagenesis studies suggest that the primary catalytic residue forming the imine linkage is Lys133, with Lys154 and other lysine residues in this region serving in opportunistic roles. These findings confirm the classification of ALKBH1 as an AP lyase, identify the primary and a secondary lysine residues involved in the lyase reaction, and demonstrate that the protein forms a covalent adduct with the 5' DNA product. We propose two plausible chemical mechanisms to account for the covalent attachment.
