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

Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are among the oldest protein cofactors, and Fe-S cluster-based chemistry has shaped the cellular metabolism of all living organisms. Over the last 30 years, thanks to molecular biology and genetic approaches, numerous actors for Fe-S cluster assembly and delivery to apotargets have been uncovered. In prokaryotes, Escherichia coli is the best-studied for its convenience of growth and its genetic amenability. During evolution, redundant ways to secure the supply of Fe-S clusters to the client proteins have emerged in E. coli. Disrupting gene expression is essential for gene function exploration, but redundancy can blur the interpretations as it can mask the role of important biogenesis components. This chapter describes molecular biology and genetic strategies that have permitted to reveal the E. coli Fe-S cluster conveying component network, composition, organization, and plasticity. In this chapter, we will describe the following genetic methods to investigate the importance of E. coli Fe-S cluster carriers: one-step inactivation of chromosomal genes in E. coli using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products, P1 transduction, arabinose-inducible expression system, mevalonate (MVA) genetic by-pass, sensitivity tests to oxidative stress and iron starvation, β-galactosidase assay, gentamicin survival test, and Hot Fusion cloning method.
