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

Ty3 is a retrotransposon of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that integrates just upstream of the transcription initiation site of genes transcribed by RNA polymerase III. Ty3 transcription is pheromone-inducible in haploid cells and is mating-type regulated in diploid cells. The specificity of Ty3 integration was exploited in the design of a novel target into which transposition of Ty3 elements could be selected. The target plasmid contains divergently oriented tRNA genes with 19 base pairs separating the two tRNA gene coding sequences. An inactive ochre suppressor tRNA(Tyr) gene with a modified transcription initiation region was used as the selectable marker and a tRNA(Val) (AAC) gene was used to direct Ty3 integration into the transcription initiation region of the suppressor tRNA(Tyr) gene. Integration of Ty3 activated expression of the suppressor tRNA gene, which resulted in suppression of ochre nonsense alleles ade2-101(0) and lys2-1(0) and allowed cell growth on selective medium. Based on the activity of this target, Ty3, under control of a galactose-inducible promoter and present on a high copy-number plasmid, was estimated to transpose into the genome at a rate of 5.6 x 10(-3) per cell division. We show here that induction of Ty3 transcription from its natural promoter results in transposition. Ty3 elements in strains of the a or alpha mating-type transposed efficiently to target plasmids in cells of the opposite mating-type. Thus, natural transposition of Ty3 is regulated temporally to occur in mating populations.
