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

For proper chromosome segregation in mitosis, sister kinetochores must interact with microtubules from opposite spindle poles (chromosome bi-orientation) [1, 2]. To promote bi-orientation, Aurora B kinase disrupts aberrant kinetochore-microtubule interactions [3-6]. It has long been debated how Aurora B halts this action when bi-orientation is established and tension is applied across sister kinetochores. A popular explanation for it is that, upon bi-orientation, sister kinetochores are pulled in opposite directions, stretching the outer kinetochores [7, 8] and moving Aurora B substrates away from Aurora-B-localizing sites at centromeres (spatial separation model) [3, 5, 9]. This model predicts that Aurora B localization at centromeres is required for bi-orientation. However, this notion was challenged by the observation that Bir1 (yeast survivin), which recruits Ipl1-Sli15 (yeast Aurora B-INCENP) to centromeres, can become dispensable for bi-orientation [10]. This raised the possibility that Aurora B localization at centromeres is dispensable for bi-orientation. Alternatively, there might be a Bir1-independent mechanism for recruiting Ipl1-Sli15 to centromeres or inner kinetochores [5, 9]. Here, we show that the COMA inner kinetochore sub-complex physically interacts with Sli15, recruits Ipl1-Sli15 to the inner kinetochore, and promotes chromosome bi-orientation, independently of Bir1, in budding yeast. Moreover, using an engineered recruitment of Ipl1-Sli15 to the inner kinetochore when both Bir1 and COMA are defective, we show that localization of Ipl1-Sli15 at centromeres or inner kinetochores is required for bi-orientation. Our results give important insight into how Aurora B disrupts kinetochore-microtubule interaction in a tension-dependent manner to promote chromosome bi-orientation.
