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

Simocyclinone D8, a coumarin derivative isolated from Streptomyces antibioticus Tü 6040, represents an interesting new antiproliferative agent. It was originally suggested that this drug recognizes the GyrA subunit and interferes with the gyrase catalytic cycle by preventing its binding to DNA. To further characterize the mode of action of this antibiotic, we investigated its binding to the reconstituted DNA gyrase (A(2)B(2)) as well as to its GyrA and GyrB subunits and the individual domains of these proteins, by performing protein melting and proteolytic digestion studies as well as inhibition assays. Two binding sites were identified, one (anticipated) in the N-terminal domain of GyrA (GyrA59) and the other (unexpected) at the C-terminal domain of GyrB (GyrB47). Stabilization of the A subunit appears to be considerably more effective than stabilization of the B subunit. Our data suggest that these two distinct sites could cooperate in the reconstituted enzyme.
