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

Posttranslational modification of histones through acetylation, methylation, and phosphorylation is a common mode of regulating chromatin structure and, therefore, diverse nuclear processes. One such modification, methylated histone H3 at lysine-4 (H3-meK4), colocalizes with hyperacetylated histones H3 and H4 in mammalian chromatin. Whereas activators directly recruit acetyltransferases, the process whereby H3-meK4 is established is unknown. We tested whether the hematopoietic-specific activators NF-E2 and GATA-1, which mediate transactivation of the beta-globin genes, induce both histone acetylation and H3-meK4. Through the use of NF-E2- and GATA-1-null cell lines, we show that both activators induce H3 acetylation at the promoter upon transcriptional activation. However, analysis of H3-mek4 revealed that NF-E2 and GATA-1 differentially regulate chromatin modifications at the betamajor promoter. NF-E2, but not GATA-1, induces H3-meK4 at the promoter. Thus, under conditions in which NF-E2 and GATA-1 activate the transcription of an endogenous gene at least 570-fold, these activators differ in their capacity to induce H3-meK4. Despite strong H3-meK4 at hypersensitive site 2 of the upstream locus control region, neither factor was required to establish H3-meK4 at this site. These results support a model in which multiple tissue-specific activators collectively function to assemble a composite histone modification pattern, consisting of overlapping histone acetylation and methylation. As GATA-1 induced H3 acetylation, but not H3-meK4, at the promoter, H3 acetylation and H3-meK4 components of a composite histone modification pattern can be established independently.
