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

backgroundPlasmids are the most commonly used vectors for heterologous protein expression in Escherichia coli. However, the plasmid copy number decreases with the segregational instability, which inevitably leads to a decrease in the yield of heterologous protein. METHODS AND

resultsIn this study, plasmid stabilization systems were used to enhance the expression level of heterologous proteins in E. coli. With the investigation of protein expression level, biomass and plasmid retention rate in different plasmid stabilization systems, the hok/sok system had the greatest potential on plasmid stabilization. In order to further investigate the molecular mechanism of hok/sok system, the structure of the binding region of hok mRNA and sok antisense RNA was modified based on the minimum free energy of mRNA, which resulted in the reduction of the binding efficiency of hok mRNA and sok asRNA, and then the toxicity of the Hok protein led to the decreased viability of the host cells. Finally, the hok/sok plasmid stabilization system was testified in 5 L fermenter, and the plasmid retention rate and protein expression level were significantly increased without the addition of antibiotics.

conclusionsThis study lays a solid foundation for a deeper understanding of the mechanism of the hok/sok plasmid stabilization system and improving the productivity of heterologous protein in E. coli.
