FIG. 2.
Phylogenetic tree of USP. USPs are classified according to the method of Nachin et al. (27). Bacterium species and protein code in GenBank are indicated (MJ, M. jannaschii; BS, B. subtilis; PA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa; MT, Mycobacterium tuberculosis; EC, E. coli; HI, Haemophilus influenzae; ST, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium; LP, L. plantarum; PP, P. pentosaceus). Proteins carrying the conserved MJ0577 ATP-binding domain are marked with an asterisk. This tree was produced using CLUSTAL W software (22a).
