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

Saccharomyces cerevisiae can grow on glycine as sole nitrogen source and can convert glycine to serine via the reaction catalyzed by the glycine decarboxylase multienzyme complex (GDC). Yeast strains with mutations in the single gene for lipoamide dehydrogenase (lpd1) lack GDC activity, as well as the other three 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases dependent on this enzyme. The LPD1 gene product is also required for cells to utilize glycine as sole nitrogen source. The effect of mutations in LPD1 (L-subunit of GDC), SER1 (synthesis of serine from 3-phosphoglycerate), ADE3 (cytoplasmic synthesis of one-carbon units for the serine synthesis from glycine), and all combinations of each has been determined. The results were used to devise methods for isolating mutants affected either in the generation of one-carbon units from glycine (via GDC) or subsequent steps in serine biosynthesis. The mutants fell into six complementation groups (gsd1-6 for defects in conversion of glycine to serine). Representatives from three complementation groups were also unable to grow on glycine as sole nitrogen source (gsd1-3). Assays of the rate of glycine uptake and decarboxylation have provided insights into the nature of the mutations.
