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

Streptomycetes are important biotechnological bacteria with complex differentiation. Copper is a well-known positive regulator of differentiation and antibiotic production. However, the specific mechanisms buffering cytosolic copper and the biochemical pathways modulated by copper remain poorly understood. Here, we developed a new methodology to quantify cytosolic copper in single spores which allowed us to propose that cytosolic copper modulates asynchrony of germination. We also characterised the SCO2730/2731 copper chaperone/P-type ATPase export system. A Streptomyces coelicolor strain mutated in SCO2730/2731 shows an important delay in germination, growth and sporulation. Secondary metabolism is heavily enhanced in the mutant which is activating the production of some specific secondary metabolites during its whole developmental cycle, including germination, the exponential growth phase and the stationary stage. Forty per cent of the S. coelicolor secondary metabolite pathways, are activated in the mutant, including several predicted pathways never observed in the lab (cryptic pathways). Cytosolic copper is precisely regulated and has a pleiotropic effect in gene expression. The only way that we know to achieve the optimal concentration for secondary metabolism activation, is the mutagenesis of SCO2730/2731. The SCO2730/2731 genes are highly conserved. Their inactivation in industrial streptomycetes may contribute to enhance bioactive compound discovery and production.
