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

key messageThe HbCZF1 protein binds to the hmg1 promoter in yeast and this interaction was confirmed in vitro. The hmg1 promoter was activated in transgenic plants by HbCZF1. Biosynthesis of natural rubber is known to be based on the mevalonate pathway in Hevea brasiliensis. The final step in the mevalonate production is catalyzed by the branch point enzyme, 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR), which shunts HMG-CoA into the isoprenoid pathway, leading to the synthesis of natural rubber. However, molecular regulation of HMGR expression is not known. To study the transcriptional regulation of HMGR, the yeast one-hybrid experiment was performed to screen the latex cDNA library using the hmg1 (one of the three HMGR in H. brasiliensis) promoter as bait. One cDNA that encodes the CCCH-type zinc finger protein, designated as HbCZF1, was isolated from H. brasiliensis. HbCZF1 interacted with the hmg1 promoter in yeast one-hybrid system and in vitro. HbCZF1 contains a 1110 bp open reading frame that encodes 369 amino acids. The deduced HbCZF1 protein was predicted to possess a typical C-X7-C-X5-C3-H CCCH motif and RNA recognition motif. HbCZF1 was predominant in the latex, but little expression was detected in the leaves, barks, and roots. Furthermore, in transgenic tobacco plants, over-expression of HbCZF1 highly activated the hmg1 promoter. These results suggested that HbCZF1 may participate in the regulation of natural rubber biosynthesis in H. brasiliensis.
