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

A polyspecific amber suppressor aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA pair was evolved that genetically encodes a series of histidine analogues in both Escherichia coli and mammalian cells. In combination with tRNACUA(Pyl), a pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase mutant was able to site-specifically incorporate 3-methyl-histidine, 3-pyridyl-alanine, 2-furyl-alanine, and 3-(2-thienyl)-alanine into proteins in response to an amber codon. Substitution of His66 in the blue fluorescent protein (BFP) with these histidine analogues created mutant proteins with distinct spectral properties. This work further expands the structural and chemical diversity of unnatural amino acids (UAAs) that can be genetically encoded in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms and affords new probes of protein structure and function.
