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

backgroundProtein kinase C (PKC) is a multifunctional serine and PKC can phosphorylate serine residues in the cytoplasmic domain of tyrosinase, thereby regulating the activity of tyrosinase. Activated PKC is bound to the melanosome membrane, and unactivated PKC is free in the cytoplasm of melanocytes. In this study, we study the role of PKC gene in the melanin synthesis pathway and its effect on the color of the nacre of H. cumingii.

resultsIn this study, a HcPKC gene in H. cumingii was cloned and its effects on melanin synthesis and nacre color were studied. HcPKC was expressed in both purple and white mussels, and the level of mRNA expression was higher in the purple mussels than in white mussels. Strong and specific mRNA signals were detected in the dorsal epithelial cells of the mantle pallial layer, indicating that HcPKC may be involved in nacre formation. After SNP association with inner shell color related traits, according to the principle that 0.25 < PIC < 0.5 is medium polymorphism and PIC < 0.25 is low polymorphism, the A + 332G site on the HcPKC gene was a site of moderate polymorphism, and the other four sites were low polymorphism sex sites. There was strong linkage disequilibrium among the five loci. A haplotype was constructed and it was found that the frequency of T1 (AGGAA)in the white population was significantly higher than that in the purple population (P < 0.05).

conclusionThe study found that HcPKC of H. cumingii can be used as a candidate gene related to inner shell color, and some of the SNP sites can be used for molecular-assisted breeding in the spinnaker mussel, providing a reference for cultivating high-quality freshwater pearls.
