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

The products of the Polycomb group (PcG) of genes are necessary for the maintenance of transcriptional repression of a number of important developmental genes, including the homeotic genes. A two-hybrid screen was used to search for putative new members of the PcG of genes in mammals. We have identified a new Zn finger protein, RYBP, which interacts directly with both Ring1 proteins (Ring1A and Ring1B) and with M33, two mutually interacting sets of proteins of the mammalian Polycomb complex. Ring1 binds RYBP and M33 through the same C-terminal domain, whereas the RYBP-M33 interaction takes place through an M33 domain not involved in Ring1 binding. RYBP also interacts directly with YY1, a transcription factor partially related to the product of the Drosophila pleiohomeotic gene. In addition, we show here that RYBP acts as a transcriptional repressor in transiently transfected cells. Finally, RYBP shows a dynamic expression pattern during embryogenesis which initially overlaps partially that of Ring1A in the central nervous system, and later becomes ubiquitous. Taken together, these data suggest that RYBP may play a relevant role in PcG function in mammals.
