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

Lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) is a novel type of histone acylation whose prevalence and function in plants remain unclear. Here, we identified 41 Khib sites on histones in Arabidopsis thaliana, which did not overlap with frequently modified N-tail lysines (e.g. H3K4, H3K9 and H4K8). Chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) assays revealed histone Khib in 35% of protein-coding genes. Most Khib peaks were located in genic regions, and they were highly enriched at the transcription start sites. Histone Khib is highly correlated with acetylation (ac), particularly H3K23ac, which it largely resembles in its genomic and genic distribution. Notably, co-enrichment of histone Khib and H3K23ac correlates with high gene expression levels. Metabolic profiling, transcriptome analyses, and ChIP-qPCR revealed that histone Khib and H3K23ac are co-enriched on genes involved in starch and sucrose metabolism, pentose and glucuronate interconversions, and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, and help fine-tune plant response to dark-induced starvation. These findings suggest that Khib and H3K23ac may act in concert to promote high levels of gene transcription and regulate cellular metabolism to facilitate plant adaption to stress. Finally, HDA6 and HDA9 are involved in removing histone Khib. Our findings reveal Khib as a conserved yet unique plant histone mark acting with lysine acetylation in transcription-associated epigenomic processes.
