From: Reductive evolution and unique predatory mode in the CPR bacterium Vampirococcus lugosii
a Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree of bacteria based on a concatenated dataset of 16 ribosomal proteins showing the position of Vampirococcus lugosii close to the Absconditabacteria (for the complete tree, see Supplementary Fig. 4). Histograms on the right show the proportion of genes retained in each species from the ancestral pool inferred for the last common ancestor of Absconditabacteria, Gracilibacteria and Peregrinibacteria. b Percentage of Vampirococcus genes belonging to the different Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG) categories. c Genes shared by Vampirococcus and the three Absconditabacteria genomes shown in the phylogenetic tree. COG categories are: Energy production and conversion [C]; Cell cycle control, cell division, chromosome partitioning [D]; Amino acid transport and metabolism [E]; Nucleotide transport and metabolism [F]; Carbohydrate transport and metabolism [G]; Coenzyme transport and metabolism [H]; Lipid transport and metabolism [I]; Translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis [J]; Transcription [K]; Replication, recombination and repair [L]; Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis [M]; Secretion, motility and chemotaxis [N]; Posttranslational modification, protein turnover, chaperones [O]; Inorganic ion transport and metabolism [P]; General function prediction only [R]; Function unknown [S]; Intracellular trafficking, secretion, and vesicular transport [U]; Defense mechanisms [V]; Mobilome: prophages, transposons [X]; Secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism [Q].
