Comparative metabolomics analysis of amphotericin B high-yield mechanism for metabolic engineering.

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
backgroundThe polyene macrocyclic compound amphotericin B (AmB) is an important antifungal antibiotic for the clinical treatment of invasive fungal infections. To rationally guide the improvement of AmB production in the main producing strain Streptomyces nodosus, comparative metabolomics analysis was performed to investigate the intracellular metabolic changes in wild-type S. nodosus ZJB20140315 with low-yield AmB production and mutant S. nodosus ZJB2016050 with high-yield AmB production, the latter of which reached industrial criteria on a pilot scale.
resultsTo investigate the relationship of intracellular metabolites, 7758 metabolites were identified in mutant S. nodosus and wildtype S. nodosus via LC-MS. Through analysis of metabolism, the level of 26 key metabolites that involved in carbon metabolism, fatty acids metabolism, amino acids metabolism, purine metabolism, folate biosynthesis and one carbon pool by folate were much higher in mutant S. nodosus. The enrichment of relevant metabolic pathways by gene overexpression strategy confirmed that one carbon pool by folate was the key metabolic pathway. Meanwhile, a recombinant strain with gene metH (methionine synthase) overexpressed showed 5.03 g/L AmB production within 120 h fermentation, which is 26.4% higher than that of the mutant strain.
conclusionsThese results demonstrated that comparative metabolomics analysis was an effective approach for the improvement of AmB production and could be applied for other industrially or clinically important compounds as well.
