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 Mre11-Rad50 protein complex is an initial responder to sites of DNA double strand breaks. Many studies have shown that ATP binding to Rad50 causes global changes to the Mre11-Rad50 structure, which are important for DNA repair functions. Here we used methyl-based NMR spectroscopy on a series of mutants to describe a dynamic allosteric pathway within Rad50. Mutations result in changes in the side chain methyl group chemical environment that are correlated with altered nanosecond timescale dynamics. We also observe striking relationships between the magnitude of chemical shift perturbations and Rad50 and Mre11 activities. Together, these data suggest an equilibrium between a ground state and an "active" dimerization competent state of Rad50 that has locally altered structure and dynamics and is poised for ATP-induced dimerization and eventual ATP hydrolysis. Thus, this sparsely populated intermediate is critical for Mre11-Rad50-directed DNA double strand break repair.
