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

Proximity ligation assay (PLA) is an immunofluorescence assay, which determines in situ interaction of two biomolecules present within 40 nm close proximity. Here, we describe a modification of PLA for visual detection of in situ protein interactions with nascent RNA in a single cell (IPNR-PLA). In IPNR-PLA, nascent RNA is labeled by incorporating 5-fluorouridine (FU), a uridine nucleotide analogue, followed by covalent cross-linking of the interacting partners in proximity to newly synthesized RNA. By using combination of anti-BrdU antibody, which specifically binds to FU, and primary antibody against a protein of interest, the IPNR reaction results in fluorescent puncta as a positive signal, only if the candidate proteins are in proximity to nascent RNA. We have validated this method by demonstrating known CDK9 and elongating RNA pol II interaction with nascent RNA. Finally, we used this method to test for the presence of DNA double strand breaks as well as Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), an RNA binding protein, in the vicinity of nascent RNA in cancer cells. The capability of performing parallel IF labeling and quantifiable multiparameter measurements within heterogeneous cell populations makes IPNR-PLA very attractive for use in biological studies. Overall, we have developed the IPNR-PLA method for analysis of protein association with nascent RNA with single-cell resolution, which is highly sensitive, quantitative, efficient, and requires little starting experimental material.
