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

We have purified and characterized a novel 60-kDa protein that binds to centromeric K-type repeat DNA from Schizosaccharomyces pombe. This protein was initially purified by its ability to bind to the autonomously replicating sequence 3002 DNA. Cloning of the gene encoding this protein revealed that it possesses significant homology to the mammalian centromere DNA-binding protein CENP-B and S. pombe Abp1, and this gene was designated as cbh+ (CENP-B homologue). Cbh protein specifically interacts in vitro with the K-type repeat DNA, which is essential for centromere function. The Cbh-binding consensus sequence was determined by DNase I footprinting assays as PyPuATATPyPuTA, featuring an inverted repeat of the first four nucleotides. Based on its binding activity to centromeric DNA and homology to centromere proteins, we suggest that this protein may be a functional homologue of the mammalian CENP-B in S. pombe.
