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

The yeast chromatin protein Sin1p/Spt2p has long been studied, but the understanding of its function has remained elusive. The protein has sequence similarity to HMG1, specifically binds crossing DNA structures, and serves as a negative transcriptional regulator of a small family of genes that are activated by the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex. Recently, it has been implicated in maintaining the integrity of chromatin during transcription elongation. Here we present experiments whose results indicate that Sin1p/Spt2 is required for, and is directly involved in, the efficient recruitment of the mRNA cleavage/polyadenylation complex. This conclusion is based on the following findings: Sin1p/Spt2 frequently binds specifically downstream of many ORFs but almost always upstream of the first polyadenylation site. It directly interacts with Fir1p, a component of the cleavage/polyadenylation complex. Disruption of Sin1p/Spt2p results in foreshortened poly(A) tracts on mRNA. It is synthetically lethal with Cdc73p, which is involved in the recruitment of the complex. This report shows that a chromatin component is involved in 3' end processing of RNA.
