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

The enzyme geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase (GGPS: EC 2.5.1.1, EC 2.5.1.10, EC 2.5.1.29) catalyses the formation of geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) from isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate via three successive condensation reactions. A full-length nucleotide sequence of GGPS (named CrGGPS) was cloned from the medicinal plant Catharanthus roseus. The deduced polypeptide has 383 amino acids with a calculated mass of 41.6 kDa and possesses prenyltransferase signatures characteristic of plant type II GGPS. The enzyme was characterized by functional complementation in carotenoid accumulating strains of Escherichia coli. When cultures of Catharanthus cell lines were treated with methyljasmonate, no specific increase in transcript levels were observed. In plants, GGPS are encoded by a small multigene family and the isoforms have been shown to be localized in three different subcellular compartments: chloroplast, endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. We investigated the subcellular distribution of CrGGPS through transient transformations of C. roseus cells with a yellow fluorescent protein-fused construct. Our results clearly indicate that CrGGPS is located to plastids within stroma and stromules.
