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

The cullin-4 (CUL4) complex DCDC (DIM-5/-7/-9/CUL4/DDB1 complex) is essential for DNA methylation and heterochromatin formation in Neurospora crassa. Cullins form the scaffold of cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) and are modified by the covalent attachment of NEDD8, a ubiquitin-like protein that regulates the stability and activity of CRLs. We report that neddylation is not required for CUL4-dependent DNA methylation or heterochromatin formation but is required for the DNA repair functions. Moreover, the RING domain protein RBX1 and a segment of the CUL4 C terminus that normally interacts with RBX1, the E2 ligase, CAND1, and CSN are dispensable for DNA methylation and heterochromatin formation by DCDC. Our study provides evidence for the noncanonical functions of core CRL components.
