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

DNA double-strand break repair by homologous recombination employs long-range resection of the 5' DNA ends at the break points. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, this process can be performed by the RecQ helicase Sgs1 and the helicase-nuclease Dna2. Though functional interplay between them has been shown, it remains unclear whether and how these proteins cooperate on the molecular level. Here, we resolved the dynamics of DNA unwinding by Sgs1 at the single-molecule level and investigated Sgs1 regulation by Dna2, the single-stranded DNA-binding protein RPA, and the Top3-Rmi1 complex. We found that Dna2 modulates the velocity of Sgs1, indicating that during end resection both proteins form a functional complex and couple their activities. Sgs1 drives DNA unwinding and feeds single-stranded DNA to Dna2 for degradation. RPA was found to regulate the processivity and the affinity of Sgs1 to the DNA fork, while Top3-Rmi1 modulated the velocity of Sgs1. We hypothesize that the differential regulation of Sgs1 activity by its protein partners is important to support diverse cellular functions of Sgs1 during the maintenance of genome stability.
