Structural insights into the substrate-bound condensation domains of non-ribosomal peptide synthetase AmbB.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) are multi-modular/domain enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of bioactive peptides. A crucial step in the process is peptide elongation accomplished by the condensation (C) domain with the aid of a peptidyl carrier or thiolation (T) domain. Here, we examined condensation reaction carried out by NRPS AmbB involved in biosynthesis of L-2-amino-4-methoxy-trans-3-butenoic acid (AMB) in P. aeruginosa. We determined crystal structures of the truncated T-C bidomain of AmbB in three forms, the apo enzyme with disordered T domain, the holo form with serine linked phosphopantetheine (Ppant) and a holo form with substrate (L-alanine) loaded onto Ppant. The two holo forms feature the T domain in a substrate-donation conformation. Mutagenesis combined with functional assays identified residues essential for the attachment of Ppant, anchoring the Ppant-L-Ala in the donor catalytic channel and the role of the conserved His953 in condensation activity. Altogether, these results provide structural insights into the condensation reaction at the donor site with a substrate-bound C domain of AmbB and lay the foundation for understanding the molecular mechanism of condensation which is crucial for AMB synthesis.
