DNA Damage-Induced RNAPII Degradation and Its Consequences in Gene Expression.
Review in Genes, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
RPB1, the major and catalytic subunit of human RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII), is specifically degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome system upon induction of DNA damage by different agents, such as ultraviolet (UV) light. The "last resort" model of RNAPII degradation states that a persistently stalled RNAPII is degraded at the site of the DNA lesion in order to facilitate access to Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) factors, thereby promoting repair in template strands of active genes. Recent identification and mutation of the lysine residue involved in RPB1 ubiquitylation and degradation unveiled the relevance of RNAPII levels in the control of gene expression. Inhibition of RNAPII degradation after UV light exposure enhanced RNAPII loading onto chromatin, demonstrating that the mere concentration of RNAPII shapes the gene expression response. In this review, we discuss the role of RNAPII ubiquitylation in NER-dependent repair, recent advances in RPB1 degradation mechanisms and its consequences in gene expression under stress, both in normal and repair deficient cells.
