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

Previous studies indicated that plant nuclear genes for chloroplast and cytosolic isoenzymes of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) arose through recombination between a preexisting gene of the eukaryotic host nucleus for the cytosolic enzyme and an endosymbiont-derived gene for the chloroplast enzyme. We readdressed the evolution of eukaryotic pgk genes through isolation and characterisation of a pgk gene from the extreme halophilic, photosynthetic archaebacterium Haloarcula vallismortis and analysis of PGK sequences from the three urkingdoms. A very high calculated net negative charge of 63 for PGK from H. vallismortis was found which is suggested to result from selection for enzyme solubility in this extremely halophilic cytosol. We refute the recombination hypothesis proposed for the origin of plant PGK isoenzymes. The data indicate that the ancestral gene from which contemporary homologues for the Calvin cycle/glycolytic isoenzymes in higher plants derive was acquired by the nucleus from (endosymbiotic) eubacteria. Gene duplication subsequent to separation of Chlamydomonas and land plant lineages gave rise to the contemporary genes for chloroplast and cytosolic PGK isoenzymes in higher plants, and resulted in replacement of the preexisting gene for PGK of the eukaryotic cytosol. Evidence suggesting a eubacterial origin of plant genes for PGK via endosymbiotic gene replacement indicates that plant nuclear genomes are more highly chimaeric, i.e. contain more genes of eubacterial origin, than is generally assumed.
