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

Genomic variants libraries are conducive to obtain dominant strains with desirable phenotypic traits. The non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), which enables foreign DNA fragments to be randomly integrated into different chromosomal sites, shows prominent capability in genomic libraries construction. In this study, we established an efficient NHEJ-mediated genomic library technology in Yarrowia lipolytica through regulation of NHEJ repair process, employment of defective Ura marker and optimization of iterative transformations, which enhanced genes integration efficiency by 4.67, 22.74 and 1.87 times, respectively. We further applied this technology to create high lycopene producing strains by multi-integration of heterologous genes of CrtE, CrtB and CrtI, with 23.8 times higher production than rDNA integration through homologous recombination (HR). The NHEJ-mediated genomic library technology also achieved random and scattered integration of loxP and vox sites, with the copy number up to 65 and 53, respectively, creating potential for further application of recombinase mediated genome rearrangement in Y. lipolytica. This work provides a high-efficient NHEJ-mediated genomic library technology, which enables random and scattered genomic integration of multiple heterologous fragments and rapid generation of diverse strains with superior phenotypes within 96 h. This novel technology also lays an excellent foundation for the development of other genetic technologies in Y. lipolytica.
