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

Cell engineering is commonly limited to the serial manipulation of a single gene or locus. The recently discovered CRISPR-associated transposases (CASTs) could manipulate multiple sets of genes to achieve predetermined cell diversity, with orthogonal CASTs being able to manipulate them in parallel. Here, a novel CAST from Pseudoalteromonas translucida KMM520 (PtrCAST) was characterized without a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) preference which can achieve a high insertion efficiency for larger cargo and multiplexed transposition and tolerate mismatches out of 4-nucleotide seed sequence. More importantly, PtrCAST operates orthogonally with CAST from Vibrio cholerae Tn6677 (VchCAST), though both belonging to type I-F3. The two CASTs were exclusively active on their respective mini-Tn substrate with their respective crRNAs that target the corresponding 5 and 2 loci in one Escherichia coli cell. The multiplexed orthogonal MUCICAT (MUlticopy Chromosomal Integration using CRISPR-Associated Transposases) is a powerful tool for cell programming and appears promising with applications in synthetic biology.
