Class IIb Microcin MccM Interferes with Oxidative Phosphorylation in
Article in ACS chemical biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Dysbiosis of the human gut microbiota is linked to numerous diseases. Understanding the molecular mechanisms by which microbes interact and compete with one another is required for developing successful strategies to modulate the microbiome. The natural product Microcin M (MccM) consists of a 77-residue bioactive peptide conjugated to a siderophore and is a class II microcin involved in microbial competition with an enigmatic mode-of-action. In this work, we investigated the basis for MccM activity and leveraged bioinformatics to expand the known chemical diversity of class II microcins. We applied automated fast-flow solid phase peptide synthesis coupled with chemoenzymatic chemistry to acquire MccM and demonstrated that its activity was bacteriostatic. We then used our synthetic molecule to ascertain that catecholate siderophore transporters in
