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 DNA repair mechanisms of hyperthermophiles can provide important insights for understanding how genetic information is maintained under extreme environments. Recent biochemical studies have identified a novel endonuclease in hyperthermophilic archaea, NucS/EndoMS, that acts on branched DNA substrates and mismatched bases. NucS/EndoMS is thought to participate in the DNA repair of helix-distorting DNA lesions, including UV-induced DNA damage and DNA adducts, and mismatched bases; however, the specific in vivo role of NucS/EndoMS in hyperthermophilic archaeal DNA repair has not been reported. To explore the role of this protein, we knocked out the nucS/endoMS gene of the thermophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and characterized the mutant phenotypes. While the nucS/endoMS-deleted strain exhibited sensitivity to DNA adducts, it did not have high mutation rates or any sensitivity to UV irradiation. It has been proposed that the XPF endonuclease is involved in homologous recombination-mediated stalled-fork DNA repair. The xpf-deficient strain exhibited sensitivity to helix-distorting DNA lesions, but the sensitivity of the nucS/endoMS and xpf double knockout strain did not increase compared to that of the single knockout strains. We conclude that the endonuclease NucS/EndoMS works with XPF in homologous recombination-mediated stalled-fork DNA repair for the removal of helix-distorting DNA lesions in S. acidocaldarius.
