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

For G-type ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, a hydrophobic "di-leucine motif" as part of a hydrophobic extracellular gate has been described to separate a large substrate-binding cavity from a smaller upper cavity and proposed to act as a valve controlling drug extrusion. Here, we show that an L704F mutation in the hydrophobic extracellular gate of Arabidopsis ABCG36/PDR8/PEN3 uncouples the export of the auxin precursor indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) from that of the defense compound camalexin (CLX). Molecular dynamics simulations reveal increased free energy for CLX translocation in ABCG36
