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

Transcription elongation through the nucleosome is a precisely coordinated activity to ensure timely production of RNA and accurate regulation of co-transcriptional histone modifications. Nucleosomes actively participate in transcription regulation at various levels and impose physical barriers to RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) during transcription elongation. Despite its high significance, the detailed dynamics of how RNAPII translocates along nucleosomal DNA during transcription elongation and how the nucleosome structure dynamically conforms to the changes necessary for RNAPII progression remain poorly understood. Transcription elongation through the nucleosome is a complex process and investigating the changes of the nucleosome structure during this process by ensemble measurements is daunting. This is because it is nearly impossible to synchronize elongation complexes within a nucleosome or a sub-nucleosome to a designated location at a high enough efficiency for desired sample homogeneity. Here we review our recently developed single-molecule FRET experimental system and method that has fulfilled this deficiency. With our method, one can follow the changes in the structure of individual nucleosomes during transcription elongation. We demonstrated that this method enables the detailed measurements of the kinetics of transcription elongation through the nucleosome and its regulation by a transcription factor, which can be easily extended to investigations of the roles of environmental variables and histone post-translational modifications in regulating transcription elongation.
