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

Metabolic engineering of microbial strains for the production of flavonoids of industrial interest has attracted great attention due to its promising advantages over traditional extraction approaches, such as independence of plantation, facile downstream separation, and ease of process and quality control. However, most of the constructed microbial production systems suffer from low production titers, low yields and low productivities, restricting their commercial applications. One important reason of the inefficient production is that the expression conditions and the detailed functions of the flavonoid pathway enzymes are not well understood. In this review, we have collected the biochemical properties, structural details, and genetic information of the enzymes in the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway as a guide for the expression and analysis of these enzymes in microbial systems. Additionally, we have summarized the engineering approaches used in improving the performances of these enzymes in recombinant microorganisms. Major challenges and future directions on the flavonoid pathway are also discussed.
