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 isolated a complementary DNA (cDNA) that encoded a TATA-binding protein (TBP) from a cDNA library of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) suspension-cultured cells (BY-2). A comparison among deduced amino acid sequences of plant TBPs revealed the presence of a long conserved region within the amino acid sequence of the TBP. Genomic Southern analysis revealed that tobacco TBP (tTBP) is encoded by only a small number of copies of a gene in the tobacco genome. Addition of recombinant tTBP to an extract of tobacco nuclei (TNE) enhanced the basal transcriptional activity in vitro. This result indicates that the level of tTBP is a rate-limiting factor for basal transcriptional activity in TNE. We subsequently succeeded in the functional complementation of TATA-dependent initiation of transcription that was associated with a plant promoter in a homologous plant system. Addition of bacterially expressed recombinant tTBP to a heat-inactivated TNE restored transcriptional activity, as did the addition of human TBP. Moreover, heating of the recombinant tTBP eliminated its ability to restore transcriptional activity. It appears that the heat inactivation of TNE was caused by the heat inactivation of tTBP in TNE.
