Odd one out? Functional tuning of Zymomonas mobilis pyruvate kinase is narrower than its allosteric, human counterpart.
Article in Protein science : a publication of the Protein Society, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Various protein properties are often illuminated using sequence comparisons of protein homologs. For example, in analyses of the pyruvate kinase multiple sequence alignment, the set of positions that changed during speciation ("phylogenetic" positions) were enriched for "rheostat" positions in human liver pyruvate kinase (hLPYK). (Rheostat positions are those which, when substituted with various amino acids, yield a range of functional outcomes). However, the correlation was moderate, which could result from multiple biophysical constraints acting on the same position during evolution and/or various sources of noise. To further examine this correlation, we here tested Zymomonas mobilis PYK (ZmPYK), which has <65% sequence identity to any other PYK sequence. Twenty-six ZmPYK positions were selected based on their phylogenetic scores, substituted with multiple amino acids, and assessed for changes in K
