SwrA-mediated Multimerization of DegU and an Upstream Activation Sequence Enhance Flagellar Gene Expression in Bacillus subtilis.
Article in Journal of molecular biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The earliest genes in bacterial flagellar assembly are activated by narrowly-conserved proteins called master regulators that often act as heteromeric complexes. A complex of SwrA and the response-regulator transcription factor DegU is thought to form the master flagellar regulator in Bacillus subtilis but how the two proteins co-operate to activate gene expression is poorly-understood. Here we find using ChIP-Seq that SwrA interacts with a subset of DegU binding sites in the chromosome and does so in a DegU-dependent manner. Using this information, we identify a DegU-specific inverted repeat DNA sequence in the P
