Comparative and Functional Genomics of Rhodococcus opacus PD630 for Biofuels Development
Figure 2
Phylogenetic analysis of type 1a and type 1b fatty acids synthases.
a) A phylogenetic tree that shows FAS type 1a is found in Actinobacteria, Stramenopiles, and Fungi. b) A phylogenetic tree of MAS-family type 1b proteins. This gene family is expanded in the genera Mycobacterium, Frankia, and Streptomyces but present in single copy in Rhodococcus belonging to branch containing the PKS12 from M. tuberculosis NP_216564 that also contains similar protein domain architecture.
