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

Despite advances made in understanding the effects of promoter structure on transcriptional activity, limited knowledge exists regarding the role played by chromatin architecture in transcription. Previous work hypothesized that transcription from the bidirectional GAL1/GAL10 promoter is controlled through looping of its UAS region around a nonstandard nucleosome. Here, by editing the GAL1/GAL10 promoter at high resolution, we provide insights into bidirectional expression control. We demonstrate that the first and fourth Gal4 binding sites within the UAS do not functionally contribute to promoter activation. Instead, these sites, along with nearby regulatory regions, contribute to the directional regulation of gene expression. Furthermore, Gal4 binding to the third binding site is critical for gene expression, while binding to the other three sites is not sufficient for transcriptional activation. Because the GAL1/GAL10 UAS can activate gene expression in many eukaryotes, the regulatory mechanism presented is expected to operate broadly across the eukaryotic clade.
