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 programmable RNA-guided DNA cleavage activity of the bacterial CRISPR-associated endonuclease Cas9 is the basis of genome editing applications in numerous model organisms and cell types. In a binary complex with a dual crRNA:tracrRNA guide or single-molecule guide RNA, Cas9 targets double-stranded DNAs harboring sequences complementary to a 20-nucleotide segment in the guide RNA. Recent structural studies of the enzyme have uncovered the molecular mechanism of RNA-guided DNA recognition. Here, we provide protocols for electrophoretic mobility shift and fluorescence-detection size exclusion chromatography assays used to probe DNA binding by Cas9 that allowed us to reconstitute and crystallize the enzyme in a ternary complex with a guide RNA and a bona fide target DNA. The procedures can be used for further mechanistic investigations of the Cas9 endonuclease family and are potentially applicable to other multicomponent protein-nucleic acid complexes.
