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

UV exposure induces a mutation signature of C > T substitutions at dipyrimidines in skin cancers. We recently identified additional UV-induced AC > TT and A > T substitutions that could respectively cause BRAF V600K and V600E oncogenic mutations. The mutagenic bypass mechanism past these atypical lesions, however, is unknown. Here, we whole genome sequenced UV-irradiated yeast and used reversion reporters to delineate the roles of replicative and translesion DNA polymerases in mutagenic bypass of UV-lesions. Our data indicates that yeast DNA polymerase eta (pol η) has varied impact on UV-induced mutations: protecting against C > T substitutions, promoting T > C and AC > TT substitutions, and not impacting A > T substitutions. Surprisingly, deletion rad30Δ increased novel UV-induced C > A substitutions at CA dinucleotides. In contrast, DNA polymerases zeta (pol ζ) and epsilon (pol ε) participated in AC > TT and A > T mutations. These results uncover lesion-specific accurate and mutagenic bypass of UV lesions, which likely contribute to key driver mutations in melanoma.
