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

Thermostability is an essential requirement of enzymes in the industrial processes to catalyze the reactions at high temperatures; thus, enzyme engineering through directed evolution, semi-rational design and rational design are commonly employed to construct desired thermostable mutants. Several strategies are implemented to fulfill enzymes' thermostability demand including decreasing the entropy of the unfolded state through substitutions Gly → Xxx or Xxx → Pro, hydrogen bond, salt bridge, introducing two different simultaneous interactions through single mutant, hydrophobic interaction, filling the hydrophobic cavity core, decreasing surface hydrophobicity, truncating loop, aromatic-aromatic interaction and introducing positively charged residues to enzyme surface. In the current review, horizons about compatibility between secondary structures and substitutions at preferable structural positions to generate the most desirable thermostability in industrial enzymes are broadened. KEY POINTS: • Protein engineering is a powerful tool for generating thermostable industrial enzymes. • Directed evolution and rational design are practical approaches in enzyme engineering. • Substitutions in preferable structural positions can increase thermostability.
