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

Despite the diversity of reactions catalyzed by 2-oxoglutarate-dependent nonheme iron (Fe/2OG) enzymes identified in recent years, only a limited number of these enzymes have been investigated in mechanistic detail. In particular, several Fe/2OG-dependent enzymes capable of catalyzing isocyanide formation have been reported. While the glycine moiety has been identified as a biosynthon for the isocyanide group, how the actual conversion is effected remains obscure. To elucidate the catalytic mechanism, we characterized two previously unidentified (AecA and AmcA) along with two known (ScoE and SfaA) Fe/2OG-dependent enzymes that catalyze N≡C triple bond installation using synthesized substrate analogues and potential intermediates. Our results indicate that isocyanide formation likely entails a two-step sequence involving an imine intermediate that undergoes decarboxylation-assisted desaturation to yield the isocyanide product.
