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

With its noncatalytic domains, DNA-binding regions, and a catalytic core targeting the histone tails, LSD1-CoREST (lysine-specific demethylase 1; REST corepressor) is an ideal model system to study the interplay between DNA binding and histone modification in nucleosome recognition. To this end, we covalently associated LSD1-CoREST to semisynthetic nucleosomal particles. This enabled biochemical and biophysical characterizations of nucleosome binding and structural elucidation by small-angle X-ray scattering, which was extensively validated through binding assays and site-directed mutagenesis of functional interfaces. Our results suggest that LSD1-CoREST functions as an ergonomic clamp that induces the detachment of the H3 histone tail from the nucleosomal DNA to make it available for capture by the enzyme active site. The key notion emerging from these studies is the inherently competitive nature of the binding interactions because nucleosome tails, chromatin modifiers, transcription factors, and DNA represent sites for multiple and often mutually exclusive interactions.
