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

Naturally occurring structural variations (SVs) are a considerable source of genomic variation that can reshape the 3D architecture of chromosomes. Controllable methods aimed at introducing the complex SVs and their related molecular mechanisms have remained farfetched. In this study, an SV-prone yeast strain was developed using Synthetic Chromosome Rearrangement and Modification by LoxP-mediated Evolution (SCRaMbLE) technology with two synthetic chromosomes, namely synV and synX. The biosynthesis of astaxanthin is used as a readout and a proof of concept for the application of SVs in industries. Our findings showed that complex SVs, including a pericentric inversion and a trans-chromosome translocation between synV and synX, resulted in two neo-chromosomes and a 2.7-fold yield of astaxanthin. Also, genetic targets were mapped, which resulted in a higher astaxanthin yield, thus demonstrating the SVs' ability to reorganize genetic information along the chromosomes. The rational design of trans-chromosome translocation and pericentric inversion enabled precise induction of these phenomena. Collectively, this study provides an effective tool to not only accelerate the directed genome evolution but also to reveal the mechanistic insight of complex SVs for altering phenotypes.
