Theoretical approach to the innovative mutation of naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase: a molecular dynamics and docking study.
Article in Journal of molecular modeling, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a family of ubiquitous pollutants whose environmental behavior has been widely studied. Different bacterial species are able to decompose hydrocarbons by using them as a food source. One of the best-studied enzymes is naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase (NDO). A practical way to optimize the degradation process is by mutating the protein involved, increasing both the degradation capacity of the enzyme and its ability to work under extreme environmental conditions of high temperature and low pH. Herein, we describe the study of NDO using molecular dynamics and docking calculations to discover new mutants with high degrading capabilities. We modeled eleven new mutants of NDO. The results indicate that increasing the size of the active site cavity in the mutants allowed for the insertion of high molecular weight PAHs. Additionally, the physicochemical properties of the NDO active sites make the sites well suited to interactions with PAHs, so most amino-acid modifications should not result in significantly altered behavior of NDO.
