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

Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) are organized in a modular arrangement. Usually, the modular order corresponds to the assembly of the amino acids in the respective peptide, following the collinearity rule. The WS9326A biosynthetic gene cluster from Streptomyces calvus shows deviations from this rule. Most interesting is the presence of two trans adenylation domains that are located downstream of the modular NRPS arrangement. Adenylation domains are responsible for the activation of their respective amino acids. In this study, we confirmed the involvement of the trans adenylation domains in WS9326A biosynthesis by performing gene knockout experiments and by observing the selective adenylation of their predicted amino acid substrates in vitro. We conclude that the trans adenylation domains are essential for WS9326A biosynthesis. Moreover, both adenylation domains are observed to have MbtH-like protein dependency. Overall, we conclude that the trans adenylation domains are essential for WS9326A biosynthesis.
