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 Streptococcus thermophilus CRISPR3-Cas (StCas9) system has been shown to mediate DNA cleavage in its original host and in E. coli as well as in vitro. Here, we have reconstituted the StCas9 system in yeast and conducted a systematic optimization of the sgRNA structure, including the minimal length of tracrRNA, loop structure, Match II region, Bulge motif, the minimal length of guide sequence within the crRNA, tolerance of mismatches and target sequence preference. The optimal sgRNA design for the StCas9 system achieved up to 12 and 40 % targeting efficiencies in yeast and human cells, respectively. This study provides important insight into the sequence and structural requirements necessary to develop a targeted and highly efficient eukaryotic gene editing platform using CRISPR-Cas systems.
