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

Currently, there is no method to distinguish between the roles of a subunit in one multisubunit protein complex from its roles in other complexes in vivo. This is because a mutation in a common subunit will affect all complexes containing that subunit. Here, we describe a unique method to discriminate between the functions of a common subunit in different multisubunit protein complexes. In this method, a common subunit in a multisubunit protein complex is genetically fused to a subunit that is specific to that complex and point mutated. The resulting phenotype(s) identify the specific function(s) of the subunit in that complex only. Histone H2B is a common subunit in nucleosomes containing H2A/H2B or Htz1/H2B dimers. The H2B was fused to H2A or Htz1 and point mutated. This strategy revealed that H2B has common and distinct functions in different nucleosomes. This method could be used to study common subunits in other multisubunit protein complexes.
