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

Twelve genes encoding key components of Clostridium cellulolyticum cellulosomes are clustered. Among them, the first, second, and fifth genes encode the assembly factor CipC and the two major cellulases Cel48F and Cel9E, respectively. Cellulolytic clones were selected from the noncellulolytic cipC insertional mutant trans-complemented with a cipC expression vector, in which one homologous recombination event between the 3' end of the chromosomal cipC gene and the plasmidic cipC gene has restored the cluster continuity. The absence of the enzymes encoded by the cluster in the cipC mutant was thus only due to a strong polar effect, indicating that all genes were transcriptionally linked. Two large transcripts were detected in cellulose-grown cells by Northern hybridization: a 14-kb messenger which carries the cipC-cel48F-cel8C-cel9G-cel9E coding sequences and, in a smaller amount, a 12-kb messenger which carries the genes located in the 3' part of the cluster. Four smaller transcripts were found in large amounts: a cipC-cel48F bicistronic one and three monocistronic ones, cipC, cel48F, and cel9E. The cipC-cel48F and cel48F messengers were shown to be stable. Analysis by reverse transcription-PCR suggested transcriptional linkage of all of the open reading frames. The production of a primary very large transcript covering the entire cluster was hypothesized. Primer extension analysis has identified two putative transcriptional start sites located 638/637 and 194 nucleotides upstream of the cipC translational start. The processing of the primary transcript would lead to the production of several secondary messengers displaying different stabilities, contributing to fine tuning of expression of individual genes of the operon.
