Gene structure of a chlorophyll a/c-binding protein from a brown alga: presence of an intron and phylogenetic implications.
Article in Journal of molecular evolution, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
A Laminaria saccharina genomic library in the phage EMBL 4 was used to isolate and sequence a full-length gene encoding a fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c-binding protein. Contrary to diatom homologues, the coding sequence is interrupted by an intron of about 900 bp which is located in the middle of the transit peptide. The deduced amino acid sequence of the mature protein is very similar to those of related proteins from Macrocystis pyrifera (Laminariales) and, to a lesser extent, to those from diatoms and Chrysophyceae. Seven of the eight putative chlorophyll-binding amino acids determined in green plants are also present. Alignments of different sequences related to the light-harvesting proteins (LHC) demonstrate a structural similarity among the three transmembrane helices and suggest a unique ancestral helix preceded by two beta-turns. The beta-turns are conserved in front of the second helices of the chlorophyll a/c proteins more so than in chlorophyll a/b proteins. Phylogenetic trees generated from sequence data indicate that fucoxanthin-chlorophyll-binding proteins diverged prior to the separation of photosystem I and photosystem II LHC genes of green plants. Among the fucoxanthin-containing algae, LHC I or II families could not be distinguished at this time.
