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

In the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, the cytosolic Glutathione Peroxidase 5 gene (GPX5) is known to be transcriptionally up-regulated in response to singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)). As demonstrated by previous studies, fusion of the promoter region of GPX5 to the Arylsulfatase 2 gene (ARS2) creates an effective reporter system that can be used to monitor (1)O(2)-driven GPX5 expression. This system was also used in this study to generate a stably transformed C. reinhardtii strain which expresses ARS2 in a (1)O(2)-dependent manner, resulting in the synthesis of a functional protein with detectable activity. Using the strain of C. reinhardtii harboring a (1)O(2)-sensitive reporter construct, a secondary mutagenic screen was performed. This allowed identification of mutant cell lines that were unable to up-regulate expression of the GPX5-ARS2 fusion in response to (1)O(2). In one of these lines, the mutation was subsequently localized to the first exon of the PSBP-like gene (PSBP2). The PSBP2 gene is part of a small protein family in C. reinhardtii, also present in all angiosperms studied thus far. While each member of the PSBP protein family contains a similar domain to the PSBP1 protein, which is a member of the oxygen evolving complex of photosystem II (PSII), the PSBP2 protein does not appear to be involved in PSII function, but may function as a sensor and/or signal mediating molecule of the (1)O(2) generated in the chloroplast.
