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

The integrase of actinophage R4, which belongs to the large serine-recombinase family, catalyzes site-specific recombination between two distinct attachment site sequences of the phage (attP) and actinomycete Streptomyces parvulus 2297 chromosome (attB). We previously reported that R4 integrase (Sre) catalyzed site-specific recombination both in vivo and in vitro. In the present study, a Sre-based system was developed for the stepwise site-specific integration of multiple genes into the chromosome of cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (hereafter PCC 6803). A transgene-integrated plasmid with two attP sites and a non-replicative sre-containing plasmid were co-introduced into attB-inserted PCC 6803 cells. The transiently expressed Sre catalyzed highly efficient site-specific integration between one of the two attP sites on the integration plasmid and the attB site on the chromosome of PCC 6803. A second transgene-integrated plasmid with an attB site was integrated into the residual attP site on the chromosome by repeating site-specific recombination. The transformation frequencies (%) of the first and second integrations were approximately 5.1 × 10(-5) and 8.2 × 10(-5), respectively. Furthermore, the expression of two transgenes was detected. This study is the first to apply the multiple gene site-specific integration system based on R4 integrase to cyanobacteria.
