Calcium-Dependent SctV-SctW Interaction Data for Type III Secretion Regulation

Experimental data supporting a study on the molecular mechanism of calcium regulation in bacterial type III secretion systems. The dataset, authored by Athina G. Portaliou, was last updated on 2026-05-20 and is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license. It is a small supplementary file of 138.2 KB, likely containing quantitative measurements of protein binding affinities and secretion states.

Use Cases

• Analyzing calcium-binding affinity data for the SctV and SctW proteins mentioned in the description
• Modeling the interaction dynamics between the export apparatus component SctV and the gatekeeper SctW
• Investigating the regulatory switch from translocator to effector secretion based on calcium concentration
• Validating mutations in SctV or SctW that disrupt calcium-dependent crosstalk and block secretion

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a specific, peer-reviewed research finding on calcium as a ruling factor in T3 secretion.
• The dataset is openly available under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.
• File size of 138.2 KB indicates a focused, manageable dataset for targeted analysis.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for statistical modeling.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset's scope is limited to the specific proteins and experiments described in the associated study.
