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

Axillary meristem development determines both plant architecture and crop yield; this critical process is regulated by the PROLIFERATING CELL FACTORS (TCP) family of transcription factors. Although TCP proteins bind primarily to promoter regions, some also target gene bodies for expression activation. However, the underlying regulatory mechanism remains unknown. Here we show that TEN, a TCP from cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), controls the identity and mobility of tendrils. Through its C terminus, TEN binds at intragenic enhancers of target genes; its N-terminal domain functions as a non-canonical histone acetyltransferase (HAT) to preferentially act on lysine 56 and 122 of the histone H3 globular domain. This HAT activity is responsible for chromatin loosening and host-gene activation. The N termini of all tested CYCLOIDEA and TEOSINTE BRANCHED 1-like TCP proteins contain an intrinsically disordered region; despite their sequence divergence, they have conserved HAT activity. This study identifies a non-canonical class of HATs and provides a mechanism by which modification at the H3 globular domain is integrated with the transcription process.
