Maize cytosolic NADP-malic enzyme (ZmCytNADP-ME): a phylogenetically distant isoform specifically expressed in embryo and emerging roots.

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.
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
Two maize plastidic NADP-malic enzyme isoforms have been characterized: the bundle sheath-located photosynthetic isoform (ZmC(4)-NADP-ME) and a constitutively expressed one (Zm-nonC(4)-NADP-ME). In this work, the characterization of the first maize cytosolic NADP-ME (ZmCytNADP-ME) is presented, which transcript is exclusively found in embryo and emerging roots. ZmCytNADP-ME expression in roots decreases with development, while Zm-nonC ( 4 ) -NADP-ME increases concomitantly. On the other hand, ZmCytNADP-ME accumulation is differentially modulated by several stress conditions and shows coordination with that of Zm-nonC ( 4 ) -NADP-ME in maize young roots. Recombinant ZmCytNADP-ME displays clearly distinct kinetic parameters and metabolic regulation than the plastidic isoforms. The particular properties and the specific-expression pattern of this novel isoform suggest that it may be involved in the control of cytosolic malate levels in emerging roots, e.g. during hypoxia. ZmCytNADP-ME is phylogenetically related to other cytosolic mono and dicot NADP-MEs, and data indicate that it belongs to an ancestral unique group among plant NADP-MEs.
