Tyrosines involved in the activity of φ29 single-stranded DNA binding protein.
Article in PloS one, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The genome of Bacillus subtilis phage ϕ29 consists of a linear double-stranded DNA with a terminal protein (TP) covalently linked to each 5' end (TP-DNA). ϕ29 DNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for viral DNA replication, due to its distinctive properties: high processivity and strand displacement capacity, being able to replicate the entire genome without requiring the assistance of processivity or unwinding factors, unlike most replicases. ϕ29 single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB) is encoded by the viral gene 5 and binds the ssDNA generated in the replication of the ϕ29 TP-DNA. It has been described to stimulate the DNA elongation rate during the DNA replication. Previous studies proposed residues Tyr50, Tyr57 and Tyr76 as ligands of ssDNA. The role of two of these residues has been determined in this work by site-directed mutagenesis. Our results showed that mutant derivative Y57A was unable to bind to ssDNA, to stimulate the DNA elongation and to displace oligonucleotides annealed to M13 ssDNA, whereas mutant Y50A behaved like the wild-type SSB.
