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

Ankyrin (ANK) repeats were first found in the Swi6 transcription factor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and since then were identified in many proteins of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. These repeats are thought to serve as protein association domains. In Swi6, ANK repeats affect DNA binding of both the Swi4/Swi6 and Mbp1/Swi6 complexes. We have previously described generation of random mutations within the ANK repeats of Swi6 that render the protein temperature sensitive in its ability to activate HO transcription. Two of these SWI6 mutants were used in a screen for high copy suppressors of this phenotype. We found that MSN1, which encodes a transcriptional activator, and NHP6A, which encodes an HMG-like protein, are able to suppress defective Swi6 function. Both of these gene products are involved in HO transcription, and Nhp6A may also be involved in CLN1 transcription. Moreover, because overexpression of NHP6A can suppress caffeine sensitivity of one of the SWI6 ANK mutants, swi6-405, other SWI6-dependent genes may also be affected by Nhp6A. We hypothesize that Nhp6A and Msn1 modulate Swi6-dependent gene transcription indirectly, through effects on chromatin structure or other transcription factors, because we have not been able to demonstrate that either Msn1 or Nhp6A interact with the Swi4/Swi6 complex.
