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

backgroundThe fungal ribotoxin hirsutellin A (HtA) exhibits strong insecticidal activity; however, efficient systems for expressing recombinant HtA (rHtA) are lacking. Here, we established an efficient heterologous expression system to produce large amounts of rHtA.

resultsRecombinant Pichia pastoris transformants with high levels of secretory rHtA were screened, and in a fed-batch reactor, rHtA was secreted at levels up to 80 mg/l following methanol induction, which was more than sixfold higher than that in shake flasks. Approximately 7 mg of highly pure rHtA was obtained from 300 ml of fed-batch culture supernatant by Ni

conclusionsThis is the first report of rHtA expression in P. pastoris. The rHtA was expressed at a high level under high-cell-density fed-batch fermentation and was efficiently purified using a two-step purification method. Purified rHtA exhibited thermal and protease stability, as well as appropriate bioactivities. Our results indicate that fed-batch production by P. pastoris is an efficient method to produce functional rHtA.
