Facade-Based Bicelles as a New Tool for Production of Active Membrane Proteins in a Cell-Free System.

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
Integral membrane proteins are important components of a cell. Their structural and functional studies require production of milligram amounts of proteins, which nowadays is not a routine process. Cell-free protein synthesis is a prospective approach to resolve this task. However, there are few known membrane mimetics that can be used to synthesize active membrane proteins in high amounts. Here, we present the application of commercially available "Facade" detergents for the production of active rhodopsin. We show that the yield of active protein in lipid bicelles containing Facade-EM, Facade-TEM, and Facade-EPC is several times higher than in the case of conventional bicelles with CHAPS and DHPC and is comparable to the yield in the presence of lipid-protein nanodiscs. Moreover, the effects of the lipid-to-detergent ratio, concentration of detergent in the feeding mixture, and lipid composition of the bicelles on the total, soluble, and active protein yields are discussed. We show that Facade-based bicelles represent a prospective membrane mimetic, available for the production of membrane proteins in a cell-free system.
