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

Although serine and glycine are ubiquitous amino acids the genetic and biochemical regulation of their synthesis has not been studied in detail. The SER1 gene encodes 3-phosphoserine aminotransferase which catalyzes the formation of phosphoserine from 3-phosphohydroxy-pyruvate, which is obtained by oxidation of 3-phosphoglycerate, an intermediate of glycolysis. Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells provided with fermentable carbon sources mainly use this pathway (glycolytic pathway) to synthesize serine and glycine. We report the isolation of the SER1 gene by complementation and the disruption of the chromosomal locus. Sequence analysis revealed an open reading frame encoding a protein with a predicted molecular weight of 43,401 Da. A previously described mammalian progesterone-induced protein shares 47% similarity with SER1 over the entire protein, indicating a common function for both proteins. We demonstrate that SER1 transcription is regulated by the general control of amino-acid biosynthesis mediated by GCN4. Additionally, DNaseI protection experiments proved the binding of GCN4 protein to the SER1 promoter in vitro and three GCN4 recognition elements (GCREs) were identified. Furthermore, there is evidence for an additional regulation by serine end product repression.
