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

The two sialyltransferases in the ST6GALNAC subfamily (EC 2.4.99.-; CAZy family GT29), ST6GalNAc5 and ST6GalNAc6, catalyze the formation of the linkage from the sialic acid moiety to the C6 position of N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) as well as to N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), and are known as α-2,6-sialyltransferases. This activity is interesting for the synthesis of the disialylated oligosaccharide disialyllacto-N-tetraose (DSLNT). Human sialyltransferases ST6GalNAc5 and ST6GalNAc6 produced in HEK293 cells are commercially available at a smaller scale. In this study, we demonstrated that ST6GalNAc5 and ST6GalNAc6 can be functionally expressed in Pichia pastoris X-33. The level of ST6GalNAc5 and ST6GalNAc6 expression and activity largely depended on the type of construct, as well as on expression conditions, namely temperature, methanol feeding regime, and supplements. Insertion of a (GGGS)₂ linker peptide between the gene and the α secretion factor improved the secretion of active enzyme in P. pastoris X-33. The use of media supplemented with MgCl
