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

Inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) catalyzes the conversion of inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-monophosphate (XMP). The enzyme is an emerging target for antimicrobial therapy. The small molecule inhibitor A110 has been identified as a potent and selective inhibitor of IMPDHs from a variety of pathogenic microorganisms. A recent X-ray crystallographic study reported that the inhibitor binds to the NAD(+) cofactor site and forms a ternary complex with IMP. Here we report a pre-steady-state stopped-flow kinetic investigation of IMPDH from Bacillus anthracis designed to assess the kinetic significance of the crystallographic results. Stopped-flow kinetic experiments defined nine microscopic rate constants and two equilibrium constants that characterize both the catalytic cycle and details of the inhibition mechanism. In combination with steady-state initial rate studies, the results show that the inhibitor binds with high affinity (Kd ≈ 50 nM) predominantly to the covalent intermediate on the reaction pathway. Only a weak binding interaction (Kd ≈ 1 μM) is observed between the inhibitor and E·IMP. Thus, the E·IMP·A110 ternary complex, observed by X-ray crystallography, is largely kinetically irrelevant.
