Expression profiling of genes coding for abundant proteins in the alkenone body of marine haptophyte alga Tisochrysis lutea.
Article in BMC microbiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundSeveral abundant proteins have been identified in lipid body of an alkenone-producing marine haptophyte alga Tisochrysis lutea. The gene expression patterns of these proteins were investigated to better understand their roles in alkenone biosynthesis. For this purpose, T. lutea was first cultured in nitrogen-sufficient medium for biomass production and then shifted to nitrogen-deprived medium to induce lipid body formation.
resultsThere were remarkable increases in the volume of alkenone body (AB) and alkenone content in the alga after they were exposed to nitrogen depletion medium. Relative mRNA levels of the genes coding for the identified proteins V-ATPase subunit V
conclusionsExpression analysis of the lipoprotein genes suggests that five out of the six genes are up-regulated and are therefore likely to code for the identified lipoproteins associated with alkenone biosynthesis in T. lutea. These data would help better understand alkenone metabolism and engineer for improved biofuel production in T. lutea.
