Known antibacterial effectors of T2SSs and some of their homologs encoded within the genomes of other T2SS-encoding species. (a) BLASTP results using the LasA sequence from P. aeruginosa strain PA01 (accession no. NP_250562) as the query. Top hits were proteins from other species of Pseudomonas; however, they were not presented in order to focus on related proteins that occur in other genera. The five examples given are proteins that show some of the greatest levels of similarity to LasA and are from diverse species that are known to encode a T2SS. (b) BLASTP results using the pseudoalterin sequence from Pseudoalteromonas sp. strain CF6-2 (accession no. WP_237115101) as the query. The examples listed are five that show some of the greatest levels of similarity to pseudoalterin and are from a range of non-Pseudoalteromonas species that are known to encode a T2SS. (c) BLASTP results using the PnpA sequence from P. damselae strain MT1415 (accession no. 6SQX_B) as the query. The proteins listed are five that showed some of the greatest levels of similarity to PnpA and are from non-Photobacterium species that are known to encode a T2SS.
