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

To expand our knowledge about the relationship of nitrogen use efficiency and glutamine synthetase (GS) activity in the mangrove plant, a cytosolic GS gene from Avicennia marina has been heterologously expressed in and purified from Escherichia coli. Synthesis of the mangrove GS enzyme in E. coli was demonstrated by functional genetic complementation of a GS deficient mutant. The subunit molecular mass of GSI was ~40 kDa. Optimal conditions for biosynthetic activity were found to be 35 °C at pH 7.5. The Mg(2+)-dependent biosynthetic activity was strongly inhibited by Ni(2+), Zn(2+), and Al(3+), whereas was enhanced by Co(2+). The apparent K m values of AmGLN1 for the substrates in the biosynthetic assay were 3.15 mM for glutamate, and 2.54 mM for ATP, 2.80 mM for NH4 (+) respectively. The low affinity kinetics of AmGLN1 apparently participates in glutamine synthesis under the ammonium excess conditions.
