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

Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) are ligand-regulated transcription factors that play multiple roles in vertebrate development and differentiation. RARs as a class are capable of both repressing and activating target gene expression. Transcriptional repression is mediated through the recruitment of corepressor proteins such as SMRT. Notably, vertebrates encode three major forms of RARs, alpha, beta, and gamma, and these distinct RAR isotypes differ in the ability to recruit a corepressor. RAR alpha strongly interacts with SMRT and can repress target gene transcription, whereas RAR beta and -gamma interact with SMRT only weakly and fail to repress. We report here the use of a genetic suppressor approach, based on a yeast two-hybrid interaction assay using Saccharomyces cerevisiae, for the isolation of RAR beta mutants that have gained the RAR alpha-like corepressor phenotype, i.e., a strong interaction with SMRT and the ability to repress gene expression in vertebrate cells. Analysis of these gain-of-function mutants indicates that the different corepressor interaction properties of RAR alpha, -beta and -gamma are determined by a gating mechanism through which amino acid differences in the helix 3 region of these receptors influence the position of the receptor C-terminal helix 12 domain. As a consequence, the RAR beta and RAR gamma receptors appear to adopt a constitutively closed helix 12 conformation in the absence of hormone that may approximate the conformation of RAR alpha when bound to hormone agonist. This closed helix 12 conformation in RAR beta and RAR gamma blocks corepressor binding, prevents repression, and permits significant levels of target gene activation even in the absence of hormone. We refer to this phenomenon as a "gate-latch" model of corepressor regulation.
