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

backgroundThe selection of replication origins is a defining characteristic of DNA replication in eukaryotes, yet its mechanism in humans has not been well defined. Potential DNA replication origins are licensed through the recruitment of a pair of minichromosome maintenance complexes (MCMs). In yeast, a subset of MCMs is selected for initiation by the SLD3-SLD7 firing factors during G1. Like in yeast, excessive numbers of MCM complexes are loaded onto chromatin during G1 in human cells, but it is unclear how MCMs are selected for firing.

resultsWe examine genomic binding locations for TICRR/TRESLIN and MTBP, the human orthologs for the yeast replication initiation factors Sld3 and Sld7. TRESLIN and MTBP binding patterns are detectable in a G1 synchronized population and have a higher binding signal compared to asynchronously cycling cells. MTBP binds to early-mid replicating regions in an early S population. Our data suggest MTBP is dependent on TRESLIN for proper association with chromatin during G1 but not S phase. We show that TRESLIN and MTBP binding during G1 does not require origins licensed with loaded MCMs.

conclusionsWe provide evidence for a chromatin binding mechanism of TRESLIN-MTBP during G1 that is dependent on TRESLIN and does not require interactions with licensed origins. MTBP binding location and footprint during S phase differs from that seen in G1, implicating two separate modes of binding. These data highlight binding mechanisms for DNA replication initiation factors in human cells that have diverged from those shown in yeast, suggesting differences in origin selection.
