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

A gene encoding a putative asparagine synthetase (AS; EC 6.3.5.4) has been isolated from common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). A 2.4 kb cDNA clone of this gene (PVAS3) encodes a protein of 570 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 64,678 Da, an isoelectric point of 6.45, and a net charge of -5.9 at pH 7.0. The PVAS3 protein sequence conserves all the amino acid residues that are essential for glutamine-dependent AS, and PVAS3 complemented an E. coli asparagine auxotroph, that demonstrates that it encodes a glutamine-dependent AS. PVAS3 displayed significant similarity to other AS. It showed the highest similarity to soybean SAS3 (92.9% identity), rice AS (73.7% identity), Arabidopsis ASN2 (73.2%) and sunflower HAS2 (72.9%). A phylogenetic analysis revealed that PVAS3 belongs to class-II asparagine synthetases. Expression analysis by real-time RT-PCR revealed that PVAS3 is expressed ubiquitously and is not repressed by light.
