Proteomic analysis reveals molecular changes following genetic engineering in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Article in BMC microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundChlamydomonas reinhardtii is gaining recognition as a promising expression system for the production of recombinant proteins. However, its performance as a cellular biofactory remains suboptimal, especially with respect to consistent expression of heterologous genes. Gene silencing mechanisms, position effect, and low nuclear transgene expression are major drawbacks for recombinant protein production in this model system. To unveil the molecular changes following transgene insertion, retention, and expression in this species, we genetically engineered C. reinhardtii wild type strain 137c (strain cc-125 mt+) to express the fluorescent protein mVenus and subsequently analysed its intracellular proteome.
resultsThe obtained transgenic cell lines showed differences in abundance in more than 400 proteins, with multiple pathways altered post-transformation. Proteins involved in chromatin remodelling, translation initiation and elongation, and protein quality control and transport were found in lower abundance. On the other hand, ribosomal proteins showed higher abundance, a signal of ribosomal stress response.
conclusionsThese results provide new insights into the modifications of C. reinhardtii proteome after transformation, highlighting possible pathways involved in gene silencing. Moreover, this study identifies multiple protein targets for future genetic engineering approaches to improve the prospective use of C. reinhardtii as cell biofactory for industrial applications.
