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

backgroundAntimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising alternative agents for antibiotics to overcome antibiotic resistance problems. But, it is difficult to produce large-scale antimicrobial research due to the toxicity towards expression hosts or degradation by peptidases in the host. Therefore, heterologous recombinant expression of antimicrobial peptides has always been a challenging issue.

objectivesTo overcome toxicity to the expression host and low expression level, a new photocleavable protein fusion expression method for antimicrobial peptides is provided.3 Methods: Through directed evolution and high throughput screening, a photocleavable protein mutant R6-2-6-4 with a higher photocleavage efficiency was obtained. The DNA coding sequence of antimicrobial peptide Histatin 1 was fused within the sequence of R6-2-6-4 gene. The fusion gene was successfully expressed in

resultsAntimicrobial peptide Histatin 1 could be successfully expressed and purified by fusing within PhoCl mutant R6-2-6-4. The antimicrobial activity was rarely affected, and the MIC value was 33 ug/mL, which was basically equivalent to 32 ug/mL of the chemically synthesized Histatin 1. After amplification in a 5 L fermenter, the expression of PhoCl mutant (R6-2-6-4)-Histatin1 improved up to 87.6 mg/L in fermenter, and Histatin1 obtained by photocleavage also could up to 11 mg/L. The prepared Histatin1 powder remained stable when stored at 4oC for up to 4 months without any degradation. In addition, the expression and photocleavage of β -Defensin105 and Lysostaphin verified the certain universality of the PhoCl mutant fusion expression system.

conclusionAntimicrobial peptides Histatin 1, β -Defensin 105 and Lysostaphin were successfully expressed and purified by photocleavable protein mutant. This may provide a novel strategy to express and purify antimicrobial peptides in the
