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

Transcription regulation relies on the molecular interplay between the RNA polymerase and regulatory factors. Phages of the phi29-like genus encode two regulatory proteins, p4 and p6. In phi29, the switch from early to late transcription is based on the synergistic binding of proteins p4 and p6 to the promoter sequence, resulting in a nucleosome-like structure able to synergize or antagonize the binding of RNAP. We show that a nucleosome-like structure of p4 and p6 is also formed in the related phage Nf and that this structure is responsible for the coordinated control of the early and late promoters. However, in spite of their homologies, the transcriptional regulators are not interchangeable, and only when all of the components of the Nf regulatory system are present is fully active transcriptional regulation of the Nf promoters achieved.
