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

Eukaryotic transcriptional activators usually recognize short DNA motifs, which are not only located within promoter regions, but also scattered throughout the genome. Assuming that the function of activators at non-promoter regions is wasteful and perhaps harmful, one can ask whether such binding is somehow prevented or if transcription is blocked at a downstream step. Here, we show that the yeast transcriptional activator Gcn4 is associated in vivo with several non-promoter euchromatic sites. This association results in the recruitment of the SAGA (Spt3/Ada/Gcn5/acetyltransferase) complex and the consequent activity of the Gcn5 histone acetyltransferase. The functional recruitment of the Swi/Snf nucleosome-remodelling complex was also evident at sites located in positioned nucleosomes. We show that this assemblage of coactivator complexes is not productive because of the absence of core promoter elements, other than the TATA box, that are required for stable mediator recruitment.
