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

Mal63p is a transcriptional activator for maltose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have purified it to homogeneity from a yeast strain in which the MAL63 gene is under the control of the GAL1-GAL10 promoter. Purification included fractionation of a whole-cell extract by ion-exchange chromatography, chromatography using both non-specific DNA-affinity (calf thymus), and sequence-specific DNA-affinity chromatography. Mal63p activity was assayed by its binding to a fragment of the MAL61-MAL62 promoter, using both filter-binding and electrophoretic-mobility shift assays. DNase-I footprinting identified a new binding site (site 3) between the two previously known sites (sites 1 and 2). Mal63p is a dimer, and methylation-protection experiments identify the recognition motif as: c/a GC N9 c/a GC/g.
