SctT
SctT is a protein component that appears in the gene clusters encoding type III secretion systems (T3SS) of various Gram-negative bacteria. The protein is named according to the common Sct (secretion and contact-dependent translocation) nomenclature used for injectisome components. SctT homologs have been identified in multiple species and are often encoded within operons together with other sct components such as sctC, sctD, and sctJ.
Localization and structure: Inferred from bioinformatic analyses and some experimental data, SctT is thought to associate
Function and interactions: SctT is generally considered part of the export or basal body region of the
Evolution and significance: SctT is widely conserved among T3SS-bearing bacteria, reflecting the integration of SctT into
