Genome-wide identification and functional characterization of borneol dehydrogenases in Wurfbainia villosa.

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
MAIN
conclusionGenome-wide screening of short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family reveals functional diversification of borneol dehydrogenase (BDH) in Wurfbainia villosa. Wurfbainia villosa is an important medicinal plant, the fruits of which accumulate abundant terpenoids, especially bornane-type including borneol and camphor. The borneol dehydrogenase (BDH) responsible for the conversion of borneol to camphor in W. villosa remains unknown. BDH is one member of short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family. Here, a total of 115 classical WvSDR genes were identified through genome-wide screening. These WvSDRs were unevenly distributed on different chromosomes. Seven candidate WvBDHs based on phylogenetic analysis and expression levels were selected for cloning. Of them, four BDHs can catalyze different configurations of borneol and other monoterpene alcohol substrates to generate the corresponding oxidized products. WvBDH1 and WvBDH2, preferred (+)-borneol to (-)-borneol, producing the predominant ( +)-camphor. WvBDH3 yielded approximate equivalent amount of (+)-camphor and (-)-camphor, in contrast, WvBDH4 generated exclusively (+)-camphor. The metabolic profiles of the seeds showed that the borneol and camphor present were in the dextrorotatory configuration. Enzyme kinetics and expression pattern in different tissues suggested WvBDH2 might be involved in the biosynthesis of camphor in W. villosa. All results will increase the understanding of functional diversity of BDHs.
