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 histidine-containing phosphotransfer protein-B (HptB; PA3345) is an intermediate protein involved in transferring a phosphoryl group from multiple sensor kinases to the response regulator PA3346 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. The objective of this study was to elucidate the biological significance of the HptB-PA3346 interaction and the regulatory mechanisms thereafter. The transcription profiling analysis of an hptB knock-out mutant showed that the expression of a number of motility-related genes was altered consistent with the non-swarming phenotype observed for the mutant. Domain analysis indicated that the PA3346 C-terminal region (PA3346C) exhibits ∼30% identity with the anti-σ factor SpoIIAB of Bacillus subtilis. The presence of Ser/Thr protein kinase activity targeting an anti-σ antagonist, PA3347, at Ser-56 was confirmed in PA3346C using an in vitro phosphorelay assay. Furthermore, PA3346C and the anti-σ(28) factor FlgM were found to interact with PA3347 individually both in vivo and in vitro. FlgM displaced PA3346C in binding of PA3347 and was then competitively displaced by σ(28) from the PA3347-FlgM complex, forming a phosphorylation-dependent partner-switching system. The significance of PA3347 phosphorylation in linking the partner-switching system and swarming motility was established by analyzing the swarming phenotype of the PA3347 knock-out mutant and its complement strains.
