Flux Balance Analysis for Media Optimization and Genetic Targets to Improve Heterologous Siderophore Production.
Article in iScience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Siderophores are small molecule metal chelators secreted in sparse quantities by their native microbial hosts but can be engineered for enhanced production from heterologous hosts like Escherichia coli. These molecules have been proved to be capable of binding heavy metals of commercial and/or environmental interest. In this work, we incorporated, as needed, the appropriate pathways required to produce several siderophores (anguibactin, vibriobactin, bacillibactin, pyoverdine, and enterobactin) into the base E. coli K-12 MG1655 metabolic network model to computationally predict, via flux balance analysis methodologies, gene knockout targets, gene over-expression targets, and media modifications capable of improving siderophore reaction flux. E. coli metabolism proved supportive for the underlying production mechanisms of various siderophores. Within such a framework, the gene deletion and over-expression targets identified, coupled with complementary insights from medium optimization predictions, portend experimental implementation to both enable and improve heterologous siderophore production. Successful production of siderophores would then spur novel metal-binding applications.
