CRISPR-Cas-Docker: web-based in silico docking and machine learning-based classification of crRNAs with Cas proteins.
Article in BMC bioinformatics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundCRISPR-Cas-Docker is a web server for in silico docking experiments with CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) and Cas proteins. This web server aims at providing experimentalists with the optimal crRNA-Cas pair predicted computationally when prokaryotic genomes have multiple CRISPR arrays and Cas systems, as frequently observed in metagenomic data.
resultsCRISPR-Cas-Docker provides two methods to predict the optimal Cas protein given a particular crRNA sequence: a structure-based method (in silico docking) and a sequence-based method (machine learning classification). For the structure-based method, users can either provide experimentally determined 3D structures of these macromolecules or use an integrated pipeline to generate 3D-predicted structures for in silico docking experiments.
conclusionCRISPR-Cas-Docker addresses the need of the CRISPR-Cas community to predict RNA-protein interactions in silico by optimizing multiple stages of computation and evaluation, specifically for CRISPR-Cas systems. CRISPR-Cas-Docker is available at www.crisprcasdocker.org as a web server, and at https://github.com/hshimlab/CRISPR-Cas-Docker as an open-source tool.
