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 prospect of introducing a single C-to-T change at a specific genomic location has become feasible with APOBEC-Cas9 editing technologies. We present a panel of eGFP reporters for quantification and optimization of single base editing by APOBEC-Cas9 editosomes. Reporter utility is demonstrated by comparing activities of seven human APOBEC3 enzymes and rat APOBEC1 (BE3). APOBEC3A and RNA binding-defective variants of APOBEC3B and APOBEC3H display the highest single base editing efficiencies. APOBEC3B catalytic domain complexes also elicit the lowest frequencies of adjacent off-target events. However, unbiased deep-sequencing of edited reporters shows that all editosomes have some degree of local off-target editing. Thus, further optimization is required to generate true single base editors and the eGFP reporters described here have the potential to facilitate this process.
