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

Retrotransposon Ty1 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae inserts a double-stranded Ty1 cDNA into the yeast genome by a reaction analogous to the integration mechanism used by retroviruses. A quantitative in vitro integration assay that directly detects integrative recombination products was developed for Ty1. Blunt-ended artificial radioactive substrates bearing Ty1 termini integrate into circular or linear target DNAs. The reaction is specific for native integrase isolated in the form of virus-like particles; virus-like particles prepared from integrase mutants were completely inactive in this assay. The products are radioactive, allowing direct detection after gel electrophoresis by autoradiography. Using this simple and amenable system, we characterized the biochemical requirements of the system and the structures of the major integration products. Two classes of products were detected: those that were the result of bona fide complete integration events (concerted reactions) and single-end joinings of substrate to target (half-reactions). Additionally, we used a genetic selection scheme to identify and characterize target sites of complete integration events into a circular target plasmid; a 5-bp target site duplication flanking the inserted DNA resembling the duplication characteristic of in vivo integration was observed.
