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

We have studied the bipartite regulatory element UASH/URS1 in the promoter of HOP1, whose product is required for synapsis and correct pairing of homologous chromosomes during the first meiotic division. HOP1 is transcriptionally repressed by the URS1 motif during vegetative growth and induced during meiotic prophase by the UASH motif in cooperation with the bifunctional URS1 site, which is required for full induction of HOP1. While URS1 is bound in vitro by the Buf and Ume6 repressor proteins, we demonstrate for the first time by electrophoretic mobility shift assays and interference footprinting that the UASH site interacts in vitro with a novel factor called UBF (UASH binding factor) which is present in haploid and diploid cycling, as well as sporulating cells. Point mutations in the HOP1 UASH motif abolish UBF-dependent DNA binding activity in vitro and meiotic HOP1 gene expression in vivo. Furthermore, we show that UBF binds in vitro to UASH-like sequences in the promoter regions of several meiosis-specific and non-specific genes and propose that UBF mediates gene expression through its interaction with the UASH motif in both cycling and sporulating cells.
