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

Ty transposable-element insertion mutations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae can cause cell-type-dependent activation of adjacent-gene expression. Several cis-acting regulatory regions within Ty1 are responsible for the effect of Ty1 on adjacent-gene expression. One of these is the block II sequence that was defined by its homology to mammalian enhancers and to the yeast a1-alpha 2 control site. Tandem copies of a 57-base-pair region encompassing block II caused an additive increase in expression of the CYC7 reporter gene in the absence of other Ty1 sequences. The activation of gene expression by the multiple repeats was abolished in a/alpha diploid cells. A specific complex between a constitutive factor in whole-cell extracts and the DNA regulatory element was observed. The protein-binding site for the constitutive factor coincided with the block II element. Base-pair substitutions within the binding site abolished the ability of the block II element to function as a component of the Ty1 activator and to form the factor-DNA complex. The correlation between complex formation and reporter gene expression indicates that factor binding to the cis-acting element is essential for this element to function as a component of the Ty1 activator.
