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 genes ACUT1, ACUT2, and ACUT3, encoding cutinases, were selected from the genomic DNA of Arxula adeninivorans LS3. The alignment of the amino acid sequences of these cutinases with those of other cutinases or cutinase-like enzymes from different fungi showed that they all had a catalytic S-D-H triad with a conserved G-Y-S-Q-G domain. All three genes were overexpressed in A. adeninivorans using the strong constitutive TEF1 promoter. Recombinant 6× His (6h)-tagged cutinase 1 protein (p) from A. adeninivorans LS3 (Acut1-6hp), Acut2-6hp, and Acut3-6hp were produced and purified by immobilized-metal ion affinity chromatography and biochemically characterized using p-nitrophenyl butyrate as the substrate for standard activity tests. All three enzymes from A. adeninivorans were active from pH 4.5 to 6.5 and from 20 to 30°C. They were shown to be unstable under optimal reaction conditions but could be stabilized using organic solvents, such as polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG 200), isopropanol, ethanol, or acetone. PEG 200 (50%, vol/vol) was found to be the best stabilizing agent for all of the cutinases, and acetone greatly increased the half-life and enzyme activity (up to 300% for Acut3-6hp). The substrate spectra for Acut1-6hp, Acut2-6hp, and Acut3-6hp were quite similar, with the highest activity being for short-chain fatty acid esters of p-nitrophenol and glycerol. Additionally, they were found to have polycaprolactone degradation activity and cutinolytic activity against cutin from apple peel. The activity was compared with that of the 6× His-tagged cutinase from Fusarium solani f. sp. pisi (FsCut-6hp), also expressed in A. adeninivorans, as a positive control. A fed-batch cultivation of the best Acut2-6hp-producing strain, A. adeninivorans G1212/YRC102-ACUT2-6H, was performed and showed that very high activities of 1,064 U ml(-1) could be achieved even with a nonoptimized cultivation procedure.
