Engineering a genetic construct to express soluble proteins tethered to the cell membrane.
Article in Bioscience reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Synthetic biology has significantly grown and developed in the last decades, allowing its implementation in a wide variety of fields and applications. However, there is a lack of versatile, modular tools that allow the expression of soluble proteins anchored to the cell membrane, which could be useful in a range of applications. Therefore, using a combination of computational simulations and experimental validation, we designed a genetic construct for the expression of soluble proteins tethered to the cell membrane. Using green fluorescent protein as a model soluble protein, we demonstrated that it was successfully tethered to the cell membrane and that it could be incorporated into polymer lipid nanodiscs and purified through the histidine tag. Replacement of the reporter gene with another gene of interest could lead to its application in a wide variety of fields, from creating artificial signalling or enzymatic cascades to studying lipid and protein dynamics in the cell membrane.
