Figure 7
(a) Distribution of DapL among Eukarya, Archaea and Bacteria according to sequences present in the UniProt database. The total number of sequences included in each bar is shown in parentheses. The grey bar represents all bacterial phyla that individually account for less than 2% of the total number of bacterial DapL sequences (14 phyla in total). DPANN: archaeal superphylum consisting of Diapherotrites, Parvarchaeota, Aenigmarchaeota, Nanoarchaeota and Nanohaloarchaeota. TACK: archaeal superphylum consisting of Thaumarchaeota, Aigarchaeota, Crenarchaeota and Korarchaeota. (b) Neighbour-joining phylogenetic trees of DapA (left) and DapL (right), showing the relationships between methanotrophic and non-methanotrophic Verrucomicrobia, DapL-containing methanotrophic Proteobacteria, methanogenic Euryarchaeota, Asgardarchaeota and Eukarya. Bracketed numbers indicate the number of sequences in a collapsed branch. Both trees contain sequences from the same taxa. For accession numbers, see Supplementary Table S1. |
