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

Two apyrases having different substrate specificity, MP67 and MpAPY2, are present in Mimosa pudica. The substrate specificity of MP67 is quite high against ADP, and is distinct from any other apyrase. This might be attributed to the nucleotide binding motif (DXG) in apyrase conserved region 1. We performed a single amino acid substitution at position X in the motif. The ratio of the velocity of ATP/ADP hydrolysis was higher (approximately 1) for the S63A-MP67 mutant than for wild type-MP67 (0.19). Binding affinity for ADP of A75S-MpAPY2 mutant was increased to a level higher than that of the wild type MpAPY2. Thus, the residue at position X in the DXG motif plays an important role in determining nucleotide preference.
