Rtt109 promotes nucleosome replacement ahead of the replication fork.
Article in Genome research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
DNA replication perturbs chromatin by triggering the eviction, replacement, and incorporation of nucleosomes. How this dynamic is orchestrated in time and space is poorly understood. Here, we apply a genetically encoded sensor for histone exchange to follow the time-resolved histone H3 exchange profile in budding yeast cells undergoing slow synchronous replication in nucleotide-limiting conditions. We find that new histones are incorporated not only behind, but also ahead of the replication fork. We provide evidence that Rtt109, the S-phase-induced acetyltransferase, stabilizes nucleosomes behind the fork but promotes H3 replacement ahead of the fork. Increased replacement ahead of the fork is independent of the primary Rtt109 acetylation target H3K56 and rather results from Vps75-dependent Rtt109 activity toward the H3 N terminus. Our results suggest that, at least under nucleotide-limiting conditions, selective incorporation of differentially modified H3s behind and ahead of the replication fork results in opposing effects on histone exchange, likely reflecting the distinct challenges for genome stability at these different regions.
