a Representative PT topology with highlighted metal ion binding motifs (aspartate-rich regions). b All transcriptomically selected candidates had the expected canonical sequences of homogentisate (HG) PTs, except for two (red), which contained an unusual combination of a p-hydroxybenzoate (PHB)-like sequence as the first motif and a HG-like sequence as the second. The PHB enzymes listed are examples of previously studied family members.
