How strand exchange protein function benefits from ATP hydrolysis.
Review in Current opinion in genetics & development, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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.
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
Members of the RecA family of strand exchange proteins carry out the central reaction in homologous recombination. These proteins are DNA-dependent ATPases, although their ATPase activity is not required for the key functions of homology search and strand exchange. We review the literature on the role of the intrinsic ATPase activity of strand exchange proteins. We also discuss the role of ATP-hydrolysis-dependent motor proteins that serve as strand exchange accessory factors, with an emphasis on the eukaryotic Rad54 family of double strand DNA-specific translocases. The energy from ATP allows recombination events to progress from the strand exchange stage to subsequent stages. ATP hydrolysis also functions to corrects DNA binding errors, including particularly detrimental binding to double strand DNA.
