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

Mutations within the TYB gene of Ty1 encoding integrase (IN) as well as alterations in its substrate, a linear DNA molecule, were examined for their effects on in vitro IN activity, using a recently developed physical assay. Five different codon-insertion mutations, two frameshift mutations, and one missense mutation, previously identified as transposition-deficient mutations, were tested. Virus-like particles, the source of IN, from two different protease mutants and a reverse transcriptase mutant exhibited near-normal to normal IN activity. Two frameshift mutations mapping within the phylogenetically variable C-terminal domain of IN resulted in significant in vitro IN activity. In contrast, three mutations within the amino-terminal conserved domain of IN completely abolished IN activity. When the substrate termini were mutated, we found that substrates with as few as 4 bp of Ty1 termini were capable of efficiently generating integration products. Surprisingly, certain substrates that lacked obvious similarity to Ty1 termini were also readily integrated into both linear and circular targets, whereas others were not used as substrates at all. Termini rich in adenosine residues were among the more active substrates; however, certain substrates lacking terminal adenosine residues can form small quantities of integration products, including complete integration reactions.
