Biosynthesis and assembly of hydrogenase [NiFe]-cofactor: recent advances and perspectives.
Review in Metallomics : integrated biometal science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The large subunit of all [NiFe]-hydrogenases in bacteria and archaea has a heterobimetallic NiFe(CN)2CO cofactor coordinated by four cysteine residues. The iron ion has two cyanides and a carbon monoxide as diatomic ligands. Six ancillary Hyp (ABCDEF) proteins are necessary for anaerobic synthesis of this cofactor, while under oxic conditions at least one further protein, HypX, is required for CO synthesis. The Fe(CN)2CO moiety of the cofactor is synthesized on a separate HypCD scaffold complex. Nickel is inserted into the apo-large subunit only after Fe(CN)2CO has been introduced. Recent biochemical and structural studies have significantly advanced our understanding of cofactor biosynthesis for these important metalloenzymes. Despite these gains in mechanistic insight, many questions still remain, the most pressing of which is the origin of the CO ligand in anaerobic microorganisms. This minireview provides an overview of the current status of this research field and highlights recent advances and unresolved issues.
