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

Surface display of proteins on bacteria bears several advantages for binding studies, library screening or enzyme inhibitor testing. Here, we present a set of plasmids for autodisplay-based surface expression of recombinant proteins, named Autodisplay-ToolBox (ATB). In this set, crucial parts as required for autodisplay, including promotor, SP, linker and β-barrel can be combined in varying permutations to find the best combination for a certain protein. The plasmids can be applied individually or in library approaches, enabling optimization of surface display in a single step. By such a library approach, the activity of surface-displayed β-glucosidase (β-Gluc) is increased by a factor of 4.9, the activity of a laccase (CotA) by a factor of 4.7 and the binding capacity of the surface-displayed nucleotide binding domain of human HCN2 channel (HCN2-CNBD) by a factor of 10.3. It is shown that the ATB can be used in different strains of E. coli as well as in Pseudomonas putida. The aim is to provide a selection of plasmids, accessible by Addgene, that every scientist can use for their own protein, either individually based on personal preferences, structural features, etc., or as a library, as shown here for three different examples.
