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

As synthetic biology expands, creating "drag-and-drop" regulatory tools that can achieve diverse regulatory outcomes are paramount. Herein, we develop a approach for engineering complex post-transcriptional control by rewiring the Carbon Storage Regulatory (Csr) Network of Escherichia coli. We co-opt native interactions of the Csr Network to establish post-transcriptional logic gates and achieve complex bacterial regulation. First, we rationally engineer RNA-protein interactions to create a genetic toolbox of 12 BUFFER Gates that achieves a 15-fold range of expression. Subsequently, we develop a Csr-regulated NOT Gate by integrating a cognate 5' UTR that is natively Csr-activated into our platform. We then deploy the BUFFER and NOT gates to build a bi-directional regulator, two input Boolean Logic gates OR, NOR, AND and NAND and a pulse-generating circuit. Last, we port our Csr-regulated BUFFER Gate into three industrially relevant bacteria simply by leveraging the conserved Csr Network in each species.
