Figure 5: Phylogenetic profiling of NucS.
From: A non-canonical mismatch repair pathway in prokaryotes
The NCBI taxonomic tree from 2,186 species from Bacteria (black outer label) and Archaea (blue outer label). Orange branches: NucS only; green branches: NucS and MutS–MutL. Bacteria includes Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, FCB (Fibrobacteres, Chlorobi and Bacteroidetes), Other Terrabacteria (Armatimonadetes, Chloroflexi, Cyanobacteria, Deinococcus-Thermus, Tenericutes and unclassified Terrabacteria) and other groups (Acidobacteria, Aquificae, Caldiserica, Chrysiogenetes, Deferribacteres, Dictyoglomi, Elusimicrobia, Fusobacteria, Nitrospirae, PVC group, Spirochaetes, Synergistetes, Thermodesulfobacteria, Thermotogae and unclassified bacteria). Archaea includes Euryarchaeota, TACK (Thaumarchaeota, Aigarchaeota, Crenarchaeota and Korarchaeota) and unclassified archaeal species (*). As NucS is absent in eukaryotes and viruses, these lineages were removed for clarity purposes. The tree was annotated using ggtree (http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/ggtree).
