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

backgroundThe filamentous ascomycete Trichoderma reesei is used for the industrial production of cellulases and holds the promise for heterologous gene expression due to its outstandingly high protein secretion rates and its long-term application in industry and science. A prerequisite for successful heterologous gene expression is the ability to insert a corresponding expression cassette at suitable loci in the genome of T. reesei.

resultsIn this study, we test and demonstrate the applicability of the his1 gene [encoding for the ATP phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.17), part of the histidine biosynthesis pathway] and locus for targeted gene insertion. Deletion of the his1 promoter and a part of the coding region leads to histidine auxotrophy. Reestablishment of the his1 locus restores prototrophy. We designed a matching plasmid that allows integration of an expression cassette at the his1 locus. This is demonstrated by the usage of the reporter EYFP (enhanced yellow fluorescence protein). Further, we describe a minimal effort and seamless marker recycling method. Finally, we test the influence of the integration site on the gene expression by comparing three strains bearing the same EYFP expression construct at different loci.

conclusionWith the establishment of his1 as integration locus and auxotrophic marker, we could expand the toolbox for strain design in T. reesei. This facilitates future strain constructions with the aim of heterologous gene expression.
