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

With increased attention to excellent biocatalysts, evolving methods based on nature or unnatural amino acid (UAAs) mutagenesis have become an important part of enzyme engineering. The emergence of powerful method through expanding the genetic code allows to incorporate UAAs with unique chemical functionalities into proteins, endowing proteins with more structural and functional features. To date, over 200 diverse UAAs have been incorporated site-specifically into proteins via this methodology and many of them have been widely exploited in the field of enzyme engineering, making this genetic code expansion approach possible to be a promising tool for modulating the properties of enzymes. In this context, we focus on how this robust method to specifically incorporate UAAs into proteins and summarize their applications in enzyme engineering for tuning and expanding the functional properties of enzymes. Meanwhile, we aim to discuss how the benefits can be achieved by using the genetically encoded UAAs. We hope that this method will become an integral part of the field of enzyme engineering in the future.
