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

Arabinofuranosyltransferase activity was identified in Golgi membranes obtained from mung bean (Vigna radiata) hypocotyls. The enzyme transfers the arabinofuranosyl (Araf) residue from UDP-beta-L-arabinofuranose to exogenous (1, 5)-linked alpha-L-arabino-oligosaccharides labeled at their reducing ends with 2-aminobenzamide. The transferred residue was shown, using 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase treatment, to be alpha-L-Araf and to be linked to O-5 of the nonreducing terminal Araf residue of the acceptor oligosaccharide. The enzyme was nonprocessive because only a single Araf residue was added to the acceptor molecule. Arabino-oligosaccharides with a degree of polymerization between 3 and 8 were acceptor substrates. The 2-aminobenzamide-labeled arabino-tetra- and pentasaccharides were the most effective acceptor substrates analyzed. The enzyme has a pH optimum between 6.5 and 7.0 and its activity is stimulated by Mn2+ and Co2+ ions. The apparent Km and Vmax values of the arabinofuranosyltransferase for UDP-arabinofuranose are 243 microm and 243 pmol min(-1) mg protein(-1), respectively. The highest enzyme activity was detected in the elongating regions of mung bean hypocotyls. The data show that UDP-arabinofuranose is the donor molecule for the generation of arabino-oligosaccharides composed of Araf residues.
