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

Multiple proteins bind to telomeric DNA and are important for the role of telomeres in genome stability. A recent study established a broad-complex, tramtrack and bric-à-brac - zinc finger (BTB-ZF) protein, ZBTB10 (zinc finger and BTB domain-containing protein 10), as a telomeric variant repeat-binding protein at telomeres that use an alternative method for lengthening telomeres). ZBTB10 specifically interacts with the double-stranded telomeric variant repeat sequence TTGGGG by employing its tandem C2H2 zinc fingers (ZF1-2). Here, we solved the crystal structure of human ZBTB10 ZF1-2 in complex with a double-stranded DNA duplex containing the sequence TTGGGG to assess the molecular details of this interaction. Combined with calorimetric analysis, we identified the vital residues in TTGGGG recognition and determined the specific recognition mechanisms that are different from those of TZAP (telomere zinc finger-associated protein), a recently defined telomeric DNA-binding protein. Following these studies, we further identified a single amino-acid mutant (Arg767Gln) of ZBTB10 ZF1-2 that shows a preference for the telomeric DNA repeat TTAGGG sequence. We solved the cocrystal structure, providing a structural basis for telomeric DNA recognition by C2H2 ZF proteins.
