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

Microbial biocatalysts capable of cellobiose assimilation are of interest in bioconversion of cellulosic materials. This study provides a careful comparison in the two mechanisms of cellobiose assimilation, hydrolysis versus phosphorolysis, between two otherwise isogenic E. coli strains. Relative to cells assimilating cellobiose hydrolytically, phosphorolysis cells tolerated common inhibitors better under both anaerobic and aerobic conditions. Additionally, phosphorolysis cells were able to direct the favorable energy metabolism to recombinant protein production, resulting in up to five fold more recombinant proteins. In a mixed sugar fermentation (5% (w/v) cellobiose+5.0% (w/v) xylose), however, xylose utilization in phosphorolysis cells came to a complete halt after only about 60% consumption whereas the hydrolysis cells were able to ferment both sugars to near completion. These results provide insights into the new metabolic engineering strategy. To our best knowledge, this is the first comparison study in E. coli on the two cellobiose assimilation mechanisms.
