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

Heterologous expression is an efficient strategy for target protein production. Dlt operon plays the important role in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid, which might affect the net negative charge of cell wall for protein secretion. In this study, dlt operon was deleted to improve the target protein production, and nattokinase, α-amylase and β-mannanase with different isoelectric points (PIs) were served as the target proteins. Firstly, our results implied that deletions of dltA, dltB, dltC and dltD improved the net negative charge of cell wall for extracellular protein secretion respectively, and among which, the dltB deficient strain DW2ΔdltB showed the best performance, its nattokinase (PI: 8.60) activity was increased by 27.50% compared with that of DW2/pP43SacCNK. Then, the dltABCD mutant strain was constructed, and the net negative charge and nattokinase activity were increased by 55.57% and 37.13% respectively, due to the deficiency of dltABCD. Moreover, it was confirmed that the activities of α-amylase (PI: 6.26) and β-mannanase (PI: 5.75) were enhanced by 44.53% and 53.06% in the dltABCD deficient strains, respectively. Collectively, this study provided a strategy that deletion of dlt operon improves the protein secretion in B. licheniformis, and which strategy was more conducive to the target protein with lower PI.
