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 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors are a large group of proteins suggested to control key events in the development of B lymphocytes as well as of other cellular lineages. To examine how bHLH proteins activate a B-lineage-specific promoter, I investigated the ability of E47, E12, Heb, E2-2, and MyoD to activate the lambda5 surrogate light chain promoter. Comparison of the functional capacity of the E2A-encoded E47 and E12 proteins indicated that even though both were able to activate the lambda5 promoter and act in synergy with early B-cell factor (EBF), E47 displayed a higher functional activity than E12. An ability to act in synergy with EBF was also observed for Heb, E2-2, and MyoD, suggesting that these factors were functionally redundant in this regard. Mapping of functional domains in EBF and E47 revealed that the dimerization and DNA binding domains mediated the synergistic activity. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay analysis using the 5' part of the lambda5 promoter revealed formation of template-dependent heteromeric complexes between EBF and E47, suggesting that the synergistic mechanism involves cooperative binding to DNA. These findings propose a unique molecular function for E47 and provide overlapping expression with EBF as a molecular mechanism to direct B-cell-specific target gene activation by bHLH proteins.
