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

The genes nysH and nysG, encoding putative ABC-type transporter proteins, are located at the flank of the nystatin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces noursei ATCC 11455. To assess the possible roles of these genes in nystatin biosynthesis, they were inactivated by gene replacements leading to in-frame deletions. Metabolite profile analysis of the nysH and nysG deletion mutants revealed that both of them synthesized nystatin at a reduced level and produced considerable amounts of a putative nystatin analogue. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance structural analyses of the latter metabolite confirmed its identity as 10-deoxynystatin, a nystatin precursor lacking a hydroxyl group at C-10. Washing experiments demonstrated that both nystatin and 10-deoxynystatin are transported out of cells, suggesting the existence of an alternative efflux system(s) for the transport of nystatin-related metabolites. This notion was further corroborated in experiments with the ATPase inhibitor sodium o-vanadate, which affected the production of nystatin and 10-deoxynystatin in the wild-type strain and transporter mutants in a different manner. The data obtained in this study suggest that the efflux of nystatin-related polyene macrolides occurs through several transporters and that the NysH-NysG efflux system provides conditions favorable for C-10 hydroxylation.
