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

Incubation of the beta-mannosidase Man2A from Cellulomonas fimi with 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-beta-D-mannosyl fluoride (2FMan beta F) resulted in time-dependent inactivation of the enzyme (inactivation rate constant k(i)=0.57 min(-1), dissociation constant for the inactivator K(i)=0.41 mM) through the accumulation of a covalent 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-alpha-D-mannosyl-beta-mannosidase 2A (2FMan-Man2A) enzyme intermediate, as observed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The stoichiometry of inactivation was 1:1. Removal of excess inactivator and regeneration of active enzyme by transglycosylation of the covalently attached inhibitor to gentiobiose [Glc beta(1-6)Glc] demonstrated that the covalent intermediate was catalytically competent. Comparison by MS of the peptic digests of 2FMan-Man2A with peptic digests of native Man2A revealed a peptide of m/z 1520 that was unique to 2FMan-Man2A, and one of m/z 1036.5 that was unique to a Man2A peptide. Their sequences, determined by collision-induced fragmentation, were CSEFGFQGPPTW and FGFQGPPTW, corresponding to residues 517-528 and 520-528 of Man2A respectively. The difference in mass of 483.5 between the two peptides equals the sum of the masses of the tripeptide CSE plus that of 2-fluoromannose. It was concluded that in 2FMan-Man2A, the 2-fluoromannose esterified to Glu-519 blocks hydrolysis of the Glu-519-Phe-520 peptide bond, and that Glu-519 is the catalytic nucleophile in this enzyme. This residue is conserved in all members of family 2 of the glycosyl hydrolases. This represents the first ever labelling and identification of an active-site nucleophile in a beta-mannosidase.
