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

This paper describes the X-ray crystallographic structure of a derivative of the antibiotic teixobactin and shows that its supramolecular assembly through the formation of antiparallel β-sheets creates binding sites for oxyanions. An active derivative of teixobactin containing lysine in place of allo-enduracididine assembles to form amyloid-like fibrils, which are observed through a thioflavin T fluorescence assay and by transmission electron microscopy. A homologue, bearing an N-methyl substituent, to attenuate fibril formation, and an iodine atom, to facilitate X-ray crystallographic phase determination, crystallizes as double helices of β-sheets that bind sulfate anions. β-Sheet dimers are key subunits of these assemblies, with the N-terminal methylammonium group of one monomer and the C-terminal macrocycle of the other monomer binding each anion. These observations suggest a working model for the mechanism of action of teixobactin, in which the antibiotic assembles and the assemblies bind lipid II and related bacterial cell wall precursors on the surface of Gram-positive bacteria.
