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

To identify the mechanisms by which multiple signaling pathways coordinately affect gene expression, we investigated regulation of the S. cerevisiae INO1 gene. Full activation of INO1 transcription occurs in the absence of inositol and requires the Snf1 protein kinase in addition to other signaling molecules and transcription factors. Here, we present evidence that the Sit4 protein phosphatase negatively regulates INO1 transcription. A mutation in SIT4 was uncovered as a suppressor of the inositol auxotrophy of snf1Delta strains. We found that sit4 mutant strains exhibit an Spt(-) phenotype, suggesting a more general role for Sit4 in transcription. In fact, like the gene-specific regulators of INO1 transcription, Opi1, Ino2, and Ino4, both Snf1 and Sit4 regulate binding of TBP to the INO1 promoter, as determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis. Experiments involving double-mutant strains indicate that the negative effect of Sit4 on INO1 transcription is unlikely to occur through dephosphorylation of histone H3 or Opi1. Sit4 is a known component of the target of rapamycin (TOR) signaling pathway, and treatment of cells with rapamycin reduces INO1 activation. However, analysis of rapamycin-treated cells suggests that Sit4 represses INO1 transcription through multiple mechanisms, only one of which may involve inhibition of TOR signaling.
