CRISPR-dependent Base Editing Screens Identify Separation of Function Mutants of RADX with Altered RAD51 Regulatory Activity.
Article in Journal of molecular biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
RAD51 forms nucleoprotein filaments to promote homologous recombination, replication fork reversal, and fork protection. Numerous factors regulate the stability of these filaments and improper regulation leads to genomic instability and ultimately disease including cancer. RADX is a single stranded DNA binding protein that modulates RAD51 filament stability. Here, we utilize a CRISPR-dependent base editing screen to tile mutations across RADX to delineate motifs required for RADX function. We identified separation of function mutants of RADX that bind DNA and RAD51 but have a reduced ability to stimulate its ATP hydrolysis activity. Cells expressing these RADX mutants accumulate RAD51 on chromatin, exhibit replication defects, have reduced growth, accumulate DNA damage, and are hypersensitive to DNA damage and replication stress. These results indicate that RADX must promote RAD51 ATP turnover to regulate RAD51 and genome stability during DNA replication.
