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

Fusarium graminearum (F. graminearum) and its derivative mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) are highly concerned with food safety and sustainability worldwide. Although several transcription factors (TFs) had been elucidated, molecular mechanism participates in DON biosynthesis regulation remains largely unrevealed. Here, we first characterized a zinc finger-contained TF in F. graminearum, FgSfp1, which is indispensable for DON production since its depletion resulting in a 95.4% DON yielding reduction. Interestingly, contrast to previous knowledge, all TRI-cluster genes were abnormally upregulated in ΔFgSfp1 while Tri proteins abundance rationally decreased simultaneously. Further evidence show FgSfp1 could coordinate genetic translation pace by manipulating ribosomal biogenesis process. Specifically, FgSfp1-depletion leads to ribosome biogenesis assembly factor (RiBi) expression attenuation along with DON precursor acetyl-CoA synthase reduction since FgSfp1 actively interacts with RNA 2'-O-methylation enzyme FgNop1 revealed by Bi-FC. It subsequently influences mRNA translation pace. In conclusion, we elucidated that the FgSfp1 orchestrates DON biosynthesis via participating RNA posttranscriptional modification for ribosomal RNA maturation, offering insights into the DON biosynthesis regulation. Ultimately, this TF might be a key regulator for DON contamination control in the whole food chain.
