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

DNA replication in mammalian cells occurs in discrete nuclear foci called 'replication factories'. Here we show that DNA ligase I, the main DNA ligase activity in proliferating cells, associates with the factories during S phase but displays a diffuse nucleoplasmic distribution in non-S phase nuclei. Immunolocalization analysis of both chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT)-DNA ligase I fusion proteins and epitope tagged DNA ligase I mutants allowed the identification of a 13 amino acid functional nuclear localization signal (NLS) located in the N-terminal regulatory domain of the protein. Furthermore, the NLS is immediately preceded by a 115 amino acid region required for the association of the enzyme with the replication factories. We propose that in vivo the activity of DNA ligase I could be modulated through the control of its sub-nuclear compartmentalization.
