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

Heparan sulfate (HS) belongs to a major class of glycans that perform central physiological functions. Heparin is a specialized form of HS and is a clinically used anticoagulant drug. Heparin is a natural product isolated from pig intestine. There is a strong demand to replace natural heparin with a synthetic counterpart. Although a chemoenzymatic approach has been employed to prepare synthetic heparin, the scale of the synthesis is limited by the availability of sulfotransferases and the cofactor, 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS). Here, we present a novel method to produce secreted forms of sulfotransferases in the yeast cells, Kluyveromyces lactis. Five sulfotransferases including N-sulfotransferase, 2-O-sulfotransferase, 3-O-sulfotransferase 1 and 6-O-sulfotransferases 1 and 3 were expressed using this method. Unlike bacterial-expressed sulfotransferases, the yeast proteins can be directly used to modify polysaccharides without laborious purification. The yeast-expressed sulfotransferases also tend to have higher specific activity and thermostability. Furthermore, we demonstrated the possibility for the gram-scale synthesis of PAPS from adenosine 5'-triphosphate at only 1/5000th of the price purchased from a commercial source. Our results pave the way to conduct the enzymatic synthesis of heparin in large quantities.
