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

2-Aminoacrylate (2AA) is a short-lived enamine generated as a catalytic intermediate in the dehydration of serine by serine/threonine dehydratase enzymes. 2AA is a metabolic stressor capable of inactivating important pyridoxal phosphate dependent enzymes in a cell. Detoxification of 2AA in a cell is catalyzed by members of the Reactive intermediate deaminase (Rid) family of proteins, which is conserved across all domains of life. We recently identified a RidA homolog, SSA_0809, hereafter SsRidA, in Streptococcus sanguinis with 50% protein sequence identity to a RidA from Salmonella enterica. 2AA deaminase activity assay revealed that SsRidA is capable of enzymatic deamination of 2AA to pyruvate. Furthermore, L-amino acid oxidase assays showed SsRidA has significant activity against several with imino-amino acids similar to the S. enterica RidA. In addition, functional complementation analysis found that SsRidA restored growth of S. enterica ridA mutant in minimal media constituted to increase 2AA stress in the cell. Finally, the crystal structure of SsRidA revealed a homotrimeric protein with active sites at the interface of two interacting monomers. Structure analysis also showed the presence of active site arginine residue along with an active site water molecule implicated in catalysis.
