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

Signaling systems allow microorganisms to sense and respond to different stimuli through the modification of gene expression. The phosphorelay signal transduction system in eukaryotes involves three proteins: a sensor protein, an intermediate protein and a response regulator, and requires the transfer of a phosphate group between two histidine-aspartic residues. The SLN1-YPD1-SSK1 system enables yeast to adapt to hyperosmotic stress through the activation of the HOG1-MAPK pathway. The genetic sequences available from Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used to identify orthologous sequences in Candida glabrata, and putative genes were identified and characterized by in silico assays. An interactome analysis was carried out with the complete genome of C. glabrata and the putative proteins of the phosphorelay signal transduction system. Next, we modeled the complex formed between the sensor protein CgSln1p and the intermediate CgYpd1p. Finally, phosphate transfer was examined by a molecular dynamic assay. Our in silico analysis showed that the putative proteins of the C. glabrata phosphorelay signal transduction system present the functional domains of histidine kinase, a downstream response regulator protein, and an intermediate histidine phosphotransfer protein. All the sequences are phylogenetically more related to S. cerevisiae than to C. albicans. The interactome suggests that the C. glabrata phosphorelay signal transduction system interacts with different proteins that regulate cell wall biosynthesis and responds to oxidative and osmotic stress the same way as similar systems in S. cerevisiae and C. albicans. Molecular dynamics simulations showed complex formation between the response regulator domain of histidine kinase CgSln1 and intermediate protein CgYpd1 in the presence of a phosphate group and interactions between the aspartic residue and the histidine residue. Overall, our research showed that C. glabrata harbors a functional SLN1-YPD1-SSK1 phosphorelay system.
