E. coli Strains Used in a DNA Repair Study of RecA-RecN Interaction

Mizuki Inoue published this dataset on 2026-05-28. It lists the Escherichia coli strains used in a study investigating the functional interplay between RecA and RecN proteins during DNA double-strand break repair. The dataset is small, at 5.5 KB, and is available in XLS format under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Compare DNA repair efficiency based on different E. coli strain genotypes mentioned in the study
• Analyze species-specific protein compatibility between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and E. coli RecA/RecN proteins
• Investigate the impact of codon optimization and gain-of-function mutations on protein expression and repair activity

Strengths

• Dataset is licensed as CC-BY-4.0, allowing for broad reuse and sharing.
• Specific file size of 5.5 KB indicates a focused, manageable dataset.
• Description provides detailed experimental context regarding heterologous protein expression and mutant analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
