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

PpsR from the anoxygenic phototrophic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides has been known as an oxygen- and light-dependent repressor of bacteriochlorophyll and carotenoid biosynthesis genes and puc operons involved in photosystem development. However, the putative PpsR-binding sites, TGTN12ACA, are also located upstream of numerous nonphotosystem genes, thus raising the possibility that the role of PpsR is broader. To characterize the PpsR regulon, transcriptome profiling was performed on the wild-type strain grown at high and low oxygen tensions, on the strain overproducing PpsR, and on the ppsR mutant. Transcriptome analysis showed that PpsR primarily regulates photosystem genes; the consensus PpsR binding sequence is TGTcN10gACA (lowercase letters indicate lesser conservation); the presence of two binding sites is required for repression in vivo. These findings explain why numerous single TGTN12ACA sequences are nonfunctional. In addition to photosystem genes, the hemC and hemE genes involved in the early steps of tetrapyrrole biosynthesis were identified as new direct targets of PpsR repression. Unexpectedly, PpsR was found to indirectly repress the puf and puhA operons encoding photosystem core proteins. The upstream regions of these operons contain no PpsR binding sites. Involvement in regulation of these operons suggests that PpsR functions as a master regulator of photosystem development. Upregulation of the puf and puhA operons that resulted from ppsR inactivation was sufficient to restore the ability to grow phototrophically to the prrA mutant. PrrA, the global redox-dependent activator, was previously considered indispensable for phototrophic growth. It is revealed that the PrrBA and AppA-PpsR systems, believed to work independently, in fact interact and coordinately regulate photosystem development.
