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

MAIN

conclusionA BAHD terpene alcohol acyltransferase, CaAT20, was identified from Celastrus angulatus Maxim, expressed in E. coli and functionally characterized. S405A mutant of CaAT20 increased the enzyme activity. Acylation is a diversely physiological process in the biosynthesis of plant secondary metabolites. Plant BAHD acyltransferases play an important role in the modification of volatile esters with biological activities. In this research, a BAHD acyltransferase (CaAT20) was identified from Celastrus angulatus Maxim and the function of this enzyme was characterized. CaAT20 could convert geraniol to geranyl esters by using benzoyl-CoA and acetyl-CoA as the acyl donors respectively. Furthermore, the catalytic activity of CaAT20 for benzoyl-CoA was higher than that of acetyl-CoA. Site-directed mutation of CaAT20 was carried out based on the results of molecular simulation. In vitro site-directed mutant S405A of CaAT20 increased the volume of binding cavity so as to facilitate the entry of geraniol, indicating a more efficient acylation for geraniol and benzoyl-CoA. Our research provides new insight for the catalytic functions of CaAT20.
