Nucleotide sequence of the cox3 gene from Chondrus crispus: evidence that UGA encodes tryptophan and evolutionary implications.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers.
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
We present the nucleotide sequence of the gene encoding subunit 3 of cytochrome c oxidase in Chondrus crispus, the first report on a mitochondrial gene from a red alga. Amino acid alignment with homologous proteins shows that tryptophan is specified by UGA, as in the mitochondrial code of most organisms other than green plants. However, phylogenetic analyses of cox3 amino acid and nucleotide sequences indicate that C. crispus COX3 is related to the green-plant mitochondrial lineage. No RNA editing was detected on the corresponding transcript. As the only known photosynthetic eukaryotes that both share an immediate mitochondrial ancestor with green plants and exhibit features characteristic of non-plant mitochondria, ie, a small-sized mitochondrial genome and a modified genetic code, rhodophytes may be thought of as an intermediate evolutionary link at the root of the green-plant mitochondrial lineage.
