ReviewPlant molecular biology1998
Multiple pathways for the targeting of thylakoid proteins in chloroplasts.
Review in Plant molecular biology, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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 assembly of the photosynthetic apparatus requires the import of numerous cytosolically synthesised proteins and their correct targeting into or across the thylakoid membrane. Biochemical and genetic studies have revealed the operation of several targeting pathways for these proteins, some of which are used for thylakoid lumen proteins whereas others are utilised by membrane proteins. Some pathways can be traced back to the prokaryotic ancestors of chloroplasts but at least one pathway appears to have arisen in response to the transfer of genes from the organelle to the nucleus. In this article we review recent findings in this field that point to the operation of a mechanistically unique protein translocase in both plastids and bacteria, and we discuss emerging data that reconcile the remarkable variety of targeting pathways with the natures of the substrate precursor proteins.
