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

Applying enzymes from unique biosynthetic pathways in a combinatorial fashion to garner new-to-nature products has been a long-standing goal of synthetic biology. Ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) are a family of natural products that comprise a broad array of chemical and structural diversity, including mechanically interlocked molecular architectures. Guided by supramolecular recognition of an N-terminal leader sequence, the core region of a precursor peptide is decorated by tailoring enzymes to generate a mature RiPP. Through repositioning the leader sequence of the fuscimiditide precursor peptide C-terminal to the core, we have shown that substrate-selective post-translational modification by the graspetide synthetase, ThfB, is retained
