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

EKLF/Klf1 is a zinc-finger transcription activator essential for erythroid lineage commitment and terminal differentiation. Using ChIP-seq, we investigate EKLF DNA binding and transcription activation mechanisms during mouse embryonic erythropoiesis. We utilize the Nan/+ mouse that expresses the EKLF-E339D (Nan) variant mutated in its conserved zinc-finger region and address the mechanism of hypomorphic and neomorphic changes in downstream gene expression. First, we show that Nan-EKLF limits normal EKLF binding to a subset of its sites. Second, we find that ectopic binding of Nan-EKLF occurs largely at enhancers and activates transcription through pioneering activity. Third, we find that for a subset of ectopic targets, gene activation is achieved in Nan/+ only by Nan-EKLF binding to distal enhancers, leading to RNA polymerase II pause-release. These results have general applicability to understanding how a DNA binding variant factor confers dominant disruptive effects on downstream gene expression even in the presence of its normal counterpart.
