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

The events that lead to promoter accessibility within chromatin are not completely understood. The invariant chain (Ii) promoter was used as a model to determine the contribution of different DNA-binding factors in establishing occupancy of a complex promoter. Gamma interferon induction of the Ii promoter requires the cooperation of multiple cis elements including distal S, X, and Y/CCAAT elements along with proximal GC and Y/CCAAT elements. The heteromeric transcription factor NF-Y binds to both Y/CCAAT elements. Genomic footprinting was used to analyze in vivo protein-DNA contacts for integrated Ii promoters bearing mutations in each element. The results reveal a hierarchy of transcription factor loading with NF-Y binding to the distal Y/CCAAT element being required for establishing protein-DNA interactions over the entire 250 bp analyzed. Mutation of the X box disrupts binding primarily at the adjacent Y/CCAAT element along with a lesser effect on GC box binding. Importantly, this finding is verified with a cell line which lacks a functional X-box-binding factor, RFX, providing physiological validity for the strategy described here. Mutation of both the S element and the GC box results in either no or little effect on transcription factor binding. However, mutation of the proximal Y/CCAAT element disrupts binding to the adjacent GC box and partially reduces binding in the distal S/X/Y domain. The crucial role for NF-Y in establishing promoter occupancy may be related to its histone fold motif, the essential component for assembling nucleosome-like structures.
