Expression of Xanthorhodopsin in Escherichia coli.
Article in The protein journal, 2023. 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
Xanthorhodopsin (XR) from Salinibacter ruber is a light-driven proton pump containing retinal and a light-harvesting carotenoid antenna salinixanthin. Previous structure-functional studies of XR were conducted using a protein isolated from the native host only due to the absence of heterologous expression in Escherichia coli. In this paper, we describe cell-free synthesis and incorporation in lipid-protein nanodiscs of the recombinant XR that demonstrated its principal compatibility with E. coli biosynthetic machinery. To produce XR in E. coli, three C-terminal deletion variants of this protein were constructed. In contrast to the full-length XR, their expression resulted in efficient synthesis in E. coli cells. However, cells producing recombinant XR variants bound retinal only upon growth in minimal medium, not in the rich one. The XR3 variant with deletion of ten C-terminal amino acid residues was obtained and characterized. Its absorption spectrum and photocycle kinetics were close to those reported for XR isolated from S. ruber membranes and bleached from salinixanthin. We have also constructed the first mutants of XR, H62M and D96N, and examined their properties.
