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

backgroundSaccharomyces cerevisiae has been extensively employed as a host for the production of various biochemicals and recombinant proteins. The expression systems employed in S. cerevisiae typically rely on constitutive or galactose-regulated promoters, and the limited repertoire of gene expression regulations imposes constraints on the productivity of microbial cell factories based on budding yeast.

resultsIn this study, we designed and characterized a series of allantoin-inducible expression systems based on the endogenous allantoin catabolic system (DAL-related genes) in S. cerevisiae. We first characterized the expression profile of a set of DAL promoters induced by allantoin, and further combined with the galactose-inducible (GAL) system to create a highly responsive genetic switch that efficiently amplifies the output signals. The resulting allantoin-GAL system could give a ON/OFF ratio of 68.6, with 6.8-fold higher signal output over that of direct P

conclusionsIn summary, we characterized several allantoin-inducible DAL promoters from budding yeast and further developed a layered allantoin-GAL system that utilizes the DAL2 promoter to regulate the galactose regulon in budding yeast. The resulting allantoin-GAL system could give an impressive ON/OFF ratio that surpassed the traditional P
