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 an approach to inducible suppression of nonsense mutations in mammalian cells, we described recently an amber suppression system in mammalian cells dependent on coexpression of Escherichia coli glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) along with the E. coli glutamine-inserting amber suppressor tRNA. Here, we report on tetracycline-regulated expression of the E. coli GlnRS gene and, thereby, tetracycline-regulated suppression of amber codons in mammalian HeLa and COS-1 cells. The E. coli GlnRS coding sequence attached to a minimal mammalian cell promoter was placed downstream of seven tandem tetracycline operator sequences. Cotransfection of HeLa cell lines expressing a tetracycline transactivator protein, carrying a tetracycline repressor domain linked to part of a herpesvirus VP16 activation domain, with the E. coli GlnRS gene and the E. coli glutamine-inserting amber suppressor tRNA gene resulted in suppression of the amber codon in a reporter chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene. The tetracycline transactivator-mediated expression of E. coli GlnRS was essentially completely blocked in HeLa or COS-1 cells grown in the presence of tetracycline. Concomitantly, both aminoacylation of the suppressor tRNA and suppression of the amber codon were reduced significantly in the presence of tetracycline.
