Periplasmic location of the pesticin immunity protein suggests inactivation of pesticin in the periplasm.
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
The pesticin activity and immunity genes on plasmid pPCP1 of Yersinia pestis were sequenced. They encoded proteins of 40 kDa (pesticin) and 16 kDa (immunity protein); the latter was found in the periplasm. The location of the immunity protein suggests that imported pesticin is inactivated in the periplasm before it hydrolyzes murein. Pesticin contains a TonB box close to the N-terminal end that is identical to the TonB box of colicin B. The DNA sequences flanking the pesticin determinant were highly homologous to those flanking the colicin 10 determinant. It is proposed that through these highly homologous DNA sequences, genes encoding bacteriocins may be exchanged between plasmids by recombination. In the case of pesticin, recombination may have destroyed the lysis gene, of which only a rudimentary fragment exists on pPCP1.
