Liposidomycin, the first reported nucleoside antibiotic inhibitor of peptidoglycan biosynthesis translocase I: The discovery of liposidomycin and related compounds with a perspective on their application to new antibiotics.
Review in The Journal of antibiotics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Liposidomycin is a uridyl liponucleoside antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces griseosporeus RK-1061. It was discovered by Isono in 1985, who had previously isolated and developed a related peptidyl nucleoside antibiotic, polyoxin, a specific inhibitor of chitin synthases, as a pesticide. He subsequently isolated liposidomycin, a specific inhibitor of bacterial peptidoglycan biosynthesis from actinomycetes, using a similar approach to the discovery of polyoxin. Liposidomycin has no cytotoxicity against BALB/3T3 cells but has antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium spp. through inhibition of MraY (MurX) [phospho-N-acetylmuramoyl-pentapeptide transferase (translocase I, EC 2.7.8.13)]. Since the discovery of liposidomycin, several liposidomycin-type antibiotics, including caprazamycin, A-90289, and muraminomycin, have been reported, and their total synthesis and/or biosynthetic cluster genes have been studied. Most advanced, a semisynthetic compound derived from caprazamycin, CPZEN-45, is being developed as an antituberculosis agent. Translocase I is an interesting and tractable molecular target for new antituberculosis and antibiotic drug discovery against multidrug-resistant bacteria. This review is dedicated to Dr Isono on the occasion of his 88th birthday to recognize his role in the study of nucleoside antibiotics.
