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 TRP1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the only TRP gene which is not derepressible by the general control regulatory system. In the TRP1 promoter transcription starts at five initiation sites, organized in two clusters. The two transcripts of the first, more upstream cluster include a long leader sequence of approximately 200 bp. A transcriptional terminator element located in the 5' region of the TRP1 gene is essential for accurate gene expression. In partial TRP1 promoters lacking the terminator, like the original EcoRI TRP1 fragment used in numerous vectors, plasmid-encoded transcription is initiated predominantly in adjacent vector regions, resulting mainly in large, poorly translated transcripts. This poor translation is not due to mRNA instability. The effect can be suppressed by introducing artificial transcription barriers between vector sequences and the truncated EcoRI TRP1 fragment.
