Inhibition of homoserine dehydrogenase by formation of a cysteine-NAD covalent complex.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Homoserine dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.3, HSD) is an important regulatory enzyme in the aspartate pathway, which mediates synthesis of methionine, threonine and isoleucine from aspartate. Here, HSD from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus tokodaii (StHSD) was found to be inhibited by cysteine, which acted as a competitive inhibitor of homoserine with a Ki of 11 μM and uncompetitive an inhibitor of NAD and NADP with Ki's of 0.55 and 1.2 mM, respectively. Initial velocity and product (NADH) inhibition analyses of homoserine oxidation indicated that StHSD first binds NAD and then homoserine through a sequentially ordered mechanism. This suggests that feedback inhibition of StHSD by cysteine occurs through the formation of an enzyme-NAD-cysteine complex. Structural analysis of StHSD complexed with cysteine and NAD revealed that cysteine situates within the homoserine binding site. The distance between the sulfur atom of cysteine and the C4 atom of the nicotinamide ring was approximately 1.9 Å, close enough to form a covalent bond. The UV absorption-difference spectrum of StHSD with and without cysteine in the presence of NAD, exhibited a peak at 325 nm, which also suggests formation of a covalent bond between cysteine and the nicotinamide ring.
