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

Here we describe the application of a novel combinatorial method, restriction endonuclease protection selection and amplification (REPSA), to identification of a consensus DNA binding site for the TATA binding subunit (hTBP) of the human general transcription factor TFIID. Unlike most combinatorial methods, REPSA is based on inhibition of an enzymatic template inactivation process by specific ligand-DNA complexes. The mild conditions of this method allow examination of proteins with atypical binding characteristics (e.g. limited discrimination between specific and non-specific binding sites), such as those found with hTBP. Analysis of 57 emergent sequences identified 47 sequences containing consensus 6 bp TATA elements as previously defined. However, further examination of these sequences indicated that a larger consensus, 5'-TATAAATA-3', could be supported by the data. Studies of the binding affinities and transcriptional activities of these four consensus TATA sequences demonstrated that hTBP binding affinity correlated directly with transcriptional activity in vitro and that the TATAAATA sequence was the best among the TATA sequences investigated.
