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

Bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) recombineering using galK selection allows DNA cloned in Escherichia coli to be modified without introducing an unwanted selectable marker at the modification site. Genomes of some herpesviruses have a pair of inverted repeat sequences that makes it very difficult to introduce mutations into diploid (duplicate) genes using the galK selection method. To mutate diploid genes, we developed a galK-UTR BAC recombineering procedure that blocks one copy of the target diploid gene by insertion of a galK untranslated region (UTR), which enables the simple mutation of the other copy. The blocked copy can then be replaced with an UTR-specific primer pair. The IR2 gene of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) maps within both the internal (IR) and terminal repeat (TR) of the genomic short region and is expressed at low levels because its promoter is TATA-less. Both IR2 promoters in EHV-1 BAC were replaced with a mutant IR2 promoter containing three Sp1-binding motifs and a consensus TATA box by galK-UTR BAC recombineering. The expression level of the IR2 protein controlled by the modified promoter increased approximately 4-fold as compared to that of wild-type EHV-1. The galK-UTR method will provide a useful tool in studies of herpesviruses.
