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

Core histones are susceptible to a variety of post-translational modifications (PTMs), among which methylation and acetylation play critical roles in various chromatin-dependent processes. The nature and biological functions of these PTMs have been extensively studied in plants, animals, and yeasts. In contrast, the histone modifications in Neurospora crassa, a convenient model organism for multicellular eukaryotes, remained largely undefined. In this study, we used several mass spectrometric techniques, coupled with HPLC separation and multiple-protease digestion, to identify the methylation and acetylation sites in core histones isolated from Neurospora. Electron transfer dissociation (ETD) was employed to fragment the heavily modified long N-terminal peptides. In addition, accurate mass measurement of fragment ions allowed for unambiguous differentiation of acetylation from trimethylation. Many modification sites conserved in other organisms were identified in Neurospora. In addition, some unique modification sites in histone H2B, including N-terminal alpha methylation, methylation at K3, and acetylation at K19, K28, and K29, were observed. Our analysis provides a potentially comprehensive picture of methylation and acetylation of core histones in Neurospora, which should serve as a foundation for future studies of the function of histone PTMs in this model organism.
