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

Cooperation between DNA polymerases and DNA sliding clamp proteins is essential for DNA replication and repair. However, it is still challenging to clarify the binding mechanism and the movements of Y-family DNA polymerase IV (DPO4) on the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) ring. Here we develop the simulation models of DPO4-PCNA123 and DPO4-PCNA12 complexes and uncover the underlying dynamics of DPO4 during binding and the binding order of the DPO4 domains. Two important intermediate states are found on the free energy surface before reaching the final bound state. Our results suggest that both PCNA3 and DPO4 can influence the PCNA12 planar conformation, whereas the impact of PCNA3 on PCNA12 is more significant than DPO4. These findings provide the crucial information of the conformational dynamics of DPO4 and PCNA, as well as the clue of the underlying mechanism of the cooperation between DPO4 and PCNA during DNA replication.
