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

Current models of transcription termination factor recruitment to the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription complex rely exclusively on the direct interaction between the termination factor and phosphorylated isoforms of the Pol II C-terminal domain (CTD). Here, we report that the Pol II flap loop is needed for physical interaction of Pol II with the Pcf11/Clp1 subcomplex of cleavage factor IA (CF IA), which functions in both 3? end processing and Pol II termination, and for proper termination of short RNAs in vitro and in vivo. Deletion of the flap loop reduces the in vivo interaction of Pol II with CF IA but increases the association of Nrd1 during stages of the transcription cycle when the CTD is predominantly Ser5 phosphorylated. We propose a model in which the flap loop coordinates a binding equilibrium between the competing termination factors Pcf11 and Nrd1 to Pol II during termination of short RNA synthesis.
