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

Transposition of Ty elements in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae occurs through an RNA intermediate. Although Ty RNA accounts for 5 to 10% of the total polyadenylated RNA in a haploid cell, the transposition frequency is only 10(-7) to 10(-8) per gene. To determine whether Ty elements native to the yeast genome are transpositionally competent, two elements were fused to the GAL1 promoter and tested for their ability to transpose. These native elements, Ty1-588 and Ty2-117, transposed at high levels when the GAL1 promoter was induced. Three Ty's identified as spontaneous transpositions in specific target genes were also tested. Of these three, Ty2-917 and the previously characterized element Ty1-H3 were shown to be transpositionally competent. The third element, Ty1-H1, was transposition defective. In addition, we marked the chromosomal copy of Ty1-588 with the NEO gene and demonstrated that Ty1-588NEO was actively transcribed in yeast cells. Ty1-588NEO transcription was regulated by the SPT3 and MAT loci in the same manner as that observed for Ty's collectively. These results indicate that the yeast genome contains functional Ty elements. The presence of a transpositionally competent, actively transcribed element suggests that regulation of Ty transposition occurs at a posttranscriptional level.
