Figure 2a Source Data: Antiphage Activity of a Secreted Bacterial Protease

Ehud Herbst published this dataset on figshare in May 2026. It contains source data for Figure 2a of a study on bacterial defense systems. The data likely supports the finding of an extracellular protease from Salinispora mooreana that reduces phage titers.

Use Cases

• Replicate statistical analyses for the antiphage effect based on phage titer data.
• Validate the extracellular mechanism of defense based on supernatant experiment data.
• Correlate phage tail protein mutations with escape from the protease effect.
• Analyze the proportion of DNA-devoid phage particles associated with protease activity.

Strengths

• Data is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
• The dataset is directly linked to a specific published figure (Figure 2a).

Limitations

• The dataset is extremely small at 332 bytes, indicating very limited scope.
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, requiring manual inspection after download.
