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

Srs2 is a superfamily 1 (SF1) helicase and antirecombinase that is required for genome integrity. However, the mechanisms that regulate Srs2 remain poorly understood. Here, we visualize Srs2 as it acts upon single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) bound by the Rad51 recombinase. We demonstrate that Srs2 is a processive translocase capable of stripping thousands of Rad51 molecules from ssDNA at a rate of ∼50 monomers/s. We show that Srs2 is recruited to RPA clusters embedded between Rad51 filaments and that multimeric arrays of Srs2 assemble during translocation on ssDNA through a mechanism involving iterative Srs2 loading events at sites cleared of Rad51. We also demonstrate that Srs2 acts on heteroduplex DNA joints through two alternative pathways, both of which result in rapid disruption of the heteroduplex intermediate. On the basis of these findings, we present a model describing the recruitment and regulation of Srs2 as it acts upon homologous recombination intermediates.
