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 cell wall of the model actinomycete Streptomyces coelicolor M145 has recently been shown to contain the novel glycopolymer teichulosonic acid. The major building block of this polymer is 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nononic acid (Kdn), suggesting initial clues about the genetic control of biosynthesis of this cell wall component. Here, through genome mining and gene knockouts, we demonstrate that the sco4879-sco4882 genomic region of S. coelicolor M145 is necessary for biosynthesis of teichulosonic acid. Specifically, mutants carrying individual knockouts of sco4879, sco4880 and sco4881 genes do not produce Kdn-containing glycopolymer and instead accumulate the minor cell wall component poly(diglycosyl 1-phosphate). Our studies provide evidence that this region is at least partly responsible for biosynthesis of Kdn, whereas flanking genes might control the other steps of teichulosonic acid formation.
