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

Saccharomyces cerevisiae general regulatory factor CP1 (encoded by the gene CEP1) is required for optimal chromosome segregation and methionine prototrophy. MET16-CYC1-lacZ reporter constructs were used to show that MET16 5'-flanking DNA contains a CP1-dependent upstream activation sequence (UAS). Activity of the UAS required an intact CP1-binding site, and the effects of cis-acting mutations on CP1 binding and UAS activity correlated. In most respects, MET16-CYC1-lacZ reporter gene expression mirrored that of chromosomal MET16; however, the endogenous gene was found to be activated in response to amino acid starvation (general control). The latter mechanism was both GCN4 and CP1 dependent. MET25 was also found to be activated by GCN4, albeit weakly. More importantly, MET25 transcription was strongly CP1 dependent in gcn4 backgrounds. The modulation of MET gene expression by GCN4 can explain discrepancies in the literature regarding CP1 dependence of MET gene transcription. Lastly, micrococcal nuclease digestion and indirect end labeling were used to analyze the chromatin structure of the MET16 locus in wild-type and cep1 cells. The results indicated that CP1 plays no major role in configuring chromatin structure in this region, although localized CP1-specific differences in nuclease sensitivity were detected.
