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

backgroundPolyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) are nano-granules naturally produced by bacteria. Two types of proteins, PHA synthase (PhaC) and phasins (PhaPs), are attached to the PHA surface by covalent and hydrophobic interactions. Utilizing these anchored proteins, functionalized PHA nano-granules displaying proteins of interest can be easily prepared by fermentation.

resultsIn this study, a one-step fabrication method was developed for stable and efficient immobilization of an organophosphorus degrading enzyme on PHA nano-granules. The nano-biocatalysts were produced in recombinant Escherichia coli cells into which the polyhydroxyalkanoate synthesis pathway from Cupriavidus necator had been introduced. Two different strategies, covalent attachment and hydrophobic binding, were investigated by fusing bacterial organophosphorus anhydride hydrolase (OPAA4301) with PhaC and PhaP, respectively. Using both methods, the tetrameric enzyme successfully self-assembled and was displayed on the PHA surface. The display density of the target fused enzyme was enhanced to 6.8% of total protein on decorated PHA by combination of covalent and non-covalent binding modes. Immobilization of the enzyme on PHA granules resulted in higher catalytic efficiency, increased stability and excellent reusability. The k

conclusionsThis study provides a promising approach for cost-efficient in vivo immobilization of a tetrameric organophosphorus degrading enzyme. The immobilization process expands the utility of the enzyme, and may inspire further commercial developments of PHA nano-biocatalysts. As revealed by our results, combination of covalent and non-covalent binding is recommended for display of enzymes on PHA granules.
