Investigating the Deoxyribonuclease Activity of CRM197 with Site-Directed Mutagenesis.
Article in ACS omega, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 protein cross-reactive material 197 (CRM197) is known to catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of DNA (DNase activity). A suspected metal-binding site (S109, T111, and E112) and suspected DNA-binding motif (T89, K90, and V91) were predicted within the CRM197 protein X-ray crystal structure (4AE0) using METSITE and DNABindProt, respectively. Between these two predicted sites is a groove (K103, E116, T120, E122, F123, and R126) that may assist in DNase activity. Alanine scanning was performed at these sites to determine which amino acids might be important for DNase activity. These mutations individually or in combination either maintained or increased the overall DNase activity compared to the unmodified CRM197. Mutation at the suspected metal-binding site showed similar fluctuations to the overall DNase activity whether the DNase assays were run with Mg
