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 holoenzyme of yeast DNA polymerase ϵ (Pol ϵ) consists of four subunits: Pol2, Dpb2, Dpb3, and Dpb4. A protease-sensitive site results in an N-terminal proteolytic fragment of Pol2, called Pol2core, that consists of the catalytic core of Pol ϵ and retains both polymerase and exonuclease activities. Pre-steady-state kinetics showed that the exonuclease rates on single-stranded, double-stranded, and mismatched DNA were comparable between Pol ϵ and Pol2core. Single-turnover pre-steady-state kinetics also showed that the kpol of Pol ϵ and Pol2core were comparable when preloading the polymerase onto the primer-template before adding Mg(2+) and dTTP. However, a global fit of the data over six sequential nucleotide incorporations revealed that the overall polymerization rate and processivity were higher for Pol ϵ than for Pol2core. The largest difference between Pol ϵ and Pol2core was observed when challenged for the formation of a ternary complex and incorporation of the first nucleotide. Pol ϵ needed less than 1 s to incorporate a nucleotide, but several seconds passed before Pol2core incorporated detectable levels of the first nucleotide. We conclude that the accessory subunits and the C terminus of Pol2 do not influence the catalytic rate of Pol ϵ but facilitate the loading and incorporation of the first nucleotide by Pol ϵ.
