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

It is commonly observed that onset or release of transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) correlates with alteration of repressive epigenetic marks. The TGS regulator MOM1 in Arabidopsis is exceptional since it regulates transcription in intermediate heterochromatin with only minor changes in epigenetic marks. We have isolated an enhancer of the mom1 mutation that points towards regulatory interplay between MOM1 and RNA polymerase-V (Pol-V). Pol-V transcribes heterochromatic loci, which seems to be required for maintenance of their silencing; however, it is still not clear how Pol-V is targeted to heterochromatin. We now provide evidence that Pol-V is required for MOM1-mediated suppression of transcription at a subset of its chromosomal targets. Thus, Pol-V genetically interacts with MOM1 in the control of gene silencing. Interestingly, functional cooperation of MOM1 and Pol-V not only broadens the range of the controlled loci in comparison to each individual factor, but also determines the degree of TGS.
