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

The regulation of the late viral gene expression in betaherpesviruses is largely undefined. We have previously shown that the murine cytomegalovirus proteins pM79 and pM92 are required for late gene transcription. Here, we provide insight into the mechanism of pM79 and pM92 activity by determining their interaction partners during infection. Co-immunoprecipitation-coupled MS studies demonstrate that pM79 and pM92 interact with an array of cellular and viral proteins involved in transcription. Specifically, we identify RNA polymerase II as a cellular target for both pM79 and pM92. We use inter-protein coevolution analysis to show how pM79 and pM92 likely assemble into a late transcription complex composed of late transcription regulators pM49, pM87 and pM95. Combining proteomic methods with coevolution computational analysis provides novel insights into the relationship between pM79, pM92 and RNA polymerase II and allows the generation of a model of the multi-component viral complex that regulates late gene transcription.
