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

Omega (ω)-transaminase catalyzes the transfer of an amino group from a non-α position amino acid, or an amine compound with no carboxylic group, to an amino acceptor, and has been studied intensively because of its high potential utility in industry and pharmatheutics. The ω-transaminase from Vibrio fluvialis JS17 (Vfat) is an amine:pyruvate transaminase capable of the stereo-selective transamination of arylic chiral amines. This enzyme exhibits extraordinary enantio-selectivity, and has a rapid reaction rate for chiral amine substrates. In this study, we report the crystal structure of the apo form of Vfat. The overall structure of Vfat was typical of other class III aminotransferase exhibiting an N-terminal helical domain, a small domain, and a large domain. Interestingly, the two subunits of apo Vfat in the asymmetric unit had different structures. A comparison of the overall structure to other transaminases, revealed that the structures of the N-terminal helical domain and the large domain can be affected by cofactor occupancy, but the structural rearrangement in these regions can occur independently.
