A temperature-sensitive mutant of Escherichia coli with an alteration in ribosomal protein L22.

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.
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
A temperature-sensitive, protein synthesis-defective mutant of Escherichia coli exhibiting an altered ribosomal protein L22 has been investigated. The temperature-sensitive mutation was mapped to the rplV gene for protein L22. The genes from the wild type and mutant strains were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction and the products were sequenced. A cytosine to thymine transition at position 22 of the coding sequence was found in the mutant DNA, predicting an arginine to cysteine alteration in the protein. A single cysteine residue was found in the isolated mutant protein. This amino acid change accounts for the altered mobility of the mutant protein in two-dimensional gels and during reversed-phase HPLC. The temperature-sensitive phenotype was fully complemented by a plasmid carrying the wild type L22 gene. Ribosomes from the complemented cells showed only wild type protein L22 by two dimensional gel analysis and were as heat-resistant as control ribosomes in a translation assay. The point mutation in the L22 gene is uniquely responsible for the temperature-sensitivity of this strain.
