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 Sin3-Rpd3 histone deacetylase complex, conserved between human and yeast, represses transcription when targeted by promoter-specific transcription factors. SIN3 and RPD3 also affect transcriptional silencing at the HM mating loci and at telomeres in yeast. Interestingly, however, deletion of the SIN3 and RPD3 genes enhances silencing, implying that the Sin3-Rpd3 complex functions to counteract, rather than to establish or maintain, silencing. Here we demonstrate that Sin3, Rpd3, and Sap30, a novel component of the Sin3-Rpd3 complex, affect silencing not only at the HMR and telomeric loci, but also at the rDNA locus. The effects on silencing at all three loci are dependent upon the histone deacetylase activity of Rpd3. Enhanced silencing associated with sin3Delta, rpd3Delta, and sap30Delta is differentially dependent upon Sir2 and Sir4 at the telomeric and rDNA loci and is also dependent upon the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Rad6 (Ubc2). We also show that the Cac3 subunit of the CAF-I chromatin assembly factor and Sin3-Rpd3 exert antagonistic effects on silencing. Strikingly, deletion of GCN5, which encodes a histone acetyltransferase, enhances silencing in a manner similar to deletion of RPD3. A model that integrates the effects of rpd3Delta, gcn5Delta, and cac3Delta on silencing is proposed.
