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

objectivePreviously, we developed the engineered DNA-binding molecule-mediated chromatin immunoprecipitation (enChIP) technology, which isolates specific genomic regions while preserving their molecular interactions. In enChIP, the locus of interest is tagged with engineered DNA-binding molecules such as the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) system, consisting of a catalytically inactive form of Cas9 (dCas9) and guide RNA, followed by affinity purification of the tagged locus to allow identification of associated molecules. In our previous studies, we used a 3xFLAG-tagged CRISPR system from Streptococcus pyogenes (S. pyogenes). In this study, to increase the flexibility of enChIP, we used the CRISPR system from Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) along with different epitope tags.

resultsWe generated a plasmid expressing S. aureus dCas9 (Sa-dCas9) fused to a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a 3xFLAG-tag (Sa-dCas9-3xFLAG). The yields of enChIP using Sa-dCas9-3xFLAG were comparable to those using S. pyogenes dCas9 fused with an NLS and a 3xFLAG-tag (3xFLAG-Sp-dCas9). We also generated another enChIP system using Sp-dCas9 fused with an NLS and a 2xAM-tag (Sp-dCas9-2xAM). We obtained high enChIP yields using this system as well. Our findings indicate that these tools will increase the flexibility of enChIP analysis.
