Distribution of PezT^Mtb (upper panel) and PezA^Mtb (lower panel) in the genus Mycobacterium. The hits were obtained at an e-value better than 1e⁻⁰⁴ and query coverage better than 70% from TBLASTN. The organisms belonging to MTBC are marked in green in both panels. Red marking indicates the organisms in which maximum number of other H₃₇Rv toxin-antitoxin systems have been found to be conserved (unpublished). The other colours represent the habitat that these organisms belong to: cyan – water, brown – soil, pink – plants, black – air.
