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

Daptomycin (DAP) is a cyclic lipopeptide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces roseosporus, and its biosynthesis is precisely regulated by a complex regulatory network. Although the biosynthetic pathway of DAP has been elucidated, the regulatory mechanism governing its biosynthesis at the transcriptional level is not yet fully understood. In the present study, a new transcriptional regulator, DhyR, was identified. A deletion mutant of dhyR was constructed using the CRISPR-Cas9 tool to elucidate the biological role of DhyR thanks to functional and transcriptomic analyses. The results demonstrated that DhyR positively regulates DAP biosynthesis in S. roseosporus. The in-frame deletion of the dhyR gene resulted in a significant downregulation of the transcription levels of all structural genes within the DAP biosynthetic gene cluster and a significant decrease in DAP yield. In contrast, overexpression of dhyR enhanced the transcription levels of the DAP biosynthetic gene cluster, leading to a 23% increase in DAP yield. Deletion of dhyR caused significant changes in the expression of multiple genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism, energy metabolism and amino acid metabolic pathways through transcriptome analysis. Especially, deletion of dhyR led to a significant downregulation of transcription levels of three DAP biosynthesis-associated genes, including atrA, depR1 and ssig-05090. In summary, DhyR positively regulates DAP biosynthesis in S. roseosporus by influencing the expression of the DAP gene cluster and modulating precursor flux. It functions as a pleiotropic regulator of primary and secondary metabolism in S. roseosporus.
