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

backgroundYeast transcription factors (TFs) involved in the regulation of multidrug resistance (MDR) were investigated in experiments with deletion mutants, transformants overexpressing synthetic genes encoding TFs, and toxic concentrations of lignocellulose-derived substances added to cultures as complex mixtures or as specific compounds, viz. coniferyl aldehyde, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, and furfural.

resultsIn the presence of complex mixtures of toxic substances from spruce wood, transformants overexpressing YAP1 and STB5, TFs involved in oxidative stress response, exhibited enhanced relative growth rates amounting to 4.589 ± 0.261 and 1.455 ± 0.185, respectively. Other TFs identified as important for resistance included DAL81, GZF3, LEU3, PUT3, and WAR1. Potential overlapping functions of YAP1 and STB5 were investigated in experiments with permutations of deletions and overexpression of the two genes. YAP1 complemented STB5 with respect to resistance to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, but had a distinct role with regard to resistance to coniferyl aldehyde as deletion of YAP1 rendered the cell incapable of resisting coniferyl aldehyde even if STB5 was overexpressed.

conclusionsWe have investigated 30 deletion mutants and eight transformants overexpressing MDR transcription factors with regard to the roles the transcription factors play in the resistance to toxic concentrations of lignocellulose-derived substances. This work provides an overview of the involvement of thirty transcription factors in the resistance to lignocellulose-derived substances, shows distinct and complementary roles played by YAP1 and STB5, and offers directions for the engineering of robust yeast strains for fermentation processes based on lignocellulosic feedstocks.
