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

To assess the functional significance of adenosine salvage in plants, the cDNAs and genes encoding two isoforms of adenosine kinase (ADK) were isolated from Arabidopsis. The ADK1- and ADK2-coding sequences are very similar, sharing 92% and 89% amino acid and nucleotide identity, respectively. Each cDNA was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and the catalytic activity of each isoform was determined. Both ADKs had similar catalytic properties with a K(m) and V(max)/K(m) for adenosine of 0.3 to 0.5 microM and 5.4 to 22 L min(-1) mg(-1) protein, respectively. The K(m) and V(max)/K(m) for the cytokinin riboside N(6)(isopentenyl) adenosine are 3 to 5 microM and 0.021 to 0.14 L min(-1) mg(-1) protein, respectively, suggesting that adenosine is the preferred substrate for both ADK isoforms. In Arabidopsis plants, both ADK genes are expressed constitutively, with the highest steady-state mRNA levels being found in stem and root. ADK1 transcript levels were generally higher than those of ADK2. ADK enzyme activity reflected relative ADK protein levels seen in immunoblots for leaves, flowers, and stems but only poorly so for roots, siliques, and dry seeds. The catalytic properties, tissue accumulation, and expression levels of these ADKs suggest that they play a key metabolic role in the salvage synthesis of adenylates and methyl recycling in Arabidopsis. They may also contribute to cytokinin interconversion.
