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

3-Dehydroquinate dehydratase (DHQase) catalyzes the conversion of 3-dehydroquinic acid to 3-dehydroshikimic acid of the shikimate pathway. In this study, 3180 prokaryotic genomes were examined and 459 DHQase sequences were retrieved. Based on sequence analysis and their original hosts, 38 DHQase genes were selected for chemical synthesis. The selected DHQases were translated into new DNA sequences according to the genetic codon usage bias by both Escherichia coli and Corynebacterium glutamicum. The new DNA sequences were customized for synthetic biological applications by adding Biobrick adapters at both ends and by removal of any related restriction endonuclease sites. The customized DHQase genes were successfully expressed in E. coli, and functional DHQases were obtained. Kinetic parameters of Km, kcat, and Vmax of DHQases were determined with a newly established high-throughput method for DHQase activity assay. Results showed that DHQases possessed broad strength of substrate affinities and catalytic capacities. In addition to the DHQase kinetic diversities, this study generated a DHQase library with known catalytic constants that could be applied to design artificial modules of shikimate pathway for metabolic engineering and synthetic biology.
