BigDNA: Primer Design Software for Overlap-Based Assembly of Phage Genomes and Larger DNAs.
Article in PHAGE (New Rochelle, N.Y.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Background: Gibson assembly and assembly-in-yeast are strategies to create long synthetic DNAs from diverse fragments, for example, when engineering bacteriophage genomes. Design for these methods requires terminal sequence overlaps in the fragments, determining the order of assembly. Design to rebuild a genomic fragment that is too long for a single PCR presents a puzzle since some candidate joint regions cannot yield satisfactory primers for the overlap. No existing overlap assembly design software is open-source, and none explicitly supports rebuilding. Methods: We describe here bigDNA software that solves the rebuilding puzzle by recursive backtracking, with options to remove or introduce genes; it also tests for mispriming on the template DNA. BigDNA was tested with 3082 prophages and other genomic islands (GIs), from 20 to 100 kb, and the synthetic Results: Rebuilding assembly design succeeded for all but ∼1% of GIs. Conclusion: BigDNA will speed and standardize assembly design.
