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

Archaeosine (G(+)) is found at position 15 of many archaeal tRNAs. In Euryarchaeota, the G(+) precursor, 7-cyano-7-deazaguanine (preQ(0)), is inserted into tRNA by tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (arcTGT) before conversion into G(+) by ARChaeosine Synthase (ArcS). However, many Crenarchaeota known to harbor G(+) lack ArcS homologues. Using comparative genomics approaches, two families that could functionally replace ArcS in these organisms were identified: (1) GAT-QueC, a two-domain family with an N-terminal glutamine amidotransferase class-II domain fused to a domain homologous to QueC, the enzyme that produces preQ(0) and (2) QueF-like, a family homologous to the bacterial enzyme catalyzing the reduction of preQ(0) to 7-aminomethyl-7-deazaguanine. Here we show that these two protein families are able to catalyze the formation of G(+) in a heterologous system. Structure and sequence comparisons of crenarchaeal and euryarchaeal arcTGTs suggest the crenarchaeal enzymes have broader substrate specificity. These results led to a new model for the synthesis and salvage of G(+) in Crenarchaeota.
