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

Ligase-catalyzed oligonucleotide polymerisations (LOOPER) can readily generate libraries of diversely-modified nucleic acid polymers, which can be subjected to iterative rounds of in vitro selection to evolve functional activity. While there exist several different DNA ligases, T4 DNA ligase has most often been used for the process. Recently, T3 DNA ligase was shown to be effective in LOOPER; however, little is known about the fidelity and efficiency of this enzyme in LOOPER. In this paper we evaluate the efficiency of T3 DNA ligase and T4 DNA ligase for various codon lengths and compositions within the context of polymerisation fidelity and yield. We find that T3 DNA ligase exhibits high efficiency and fidelity with short codon lengths, but struggles with longer and more complex codon libraries, while T4 DNA ligase exhibits the opposite trend. Interestingly, T3 DNA ligase is unable to accommodate modifications at the 8-position of adenosine when integrated into short codons, which will create challenges in expanding the available codon set for the process. The limitations and strengths of the two ligases are further discussed within the context of LOOPER.
