Mbur_0387 [YP_565131] CDD28974 Mbur_1911 [YP_566543]

The protein ID number starting with Mbur represents query protein from the genome of M. burtonii. "=" means paralogous genes.

Note 1. A homolog to MMP0400 is found in Solibacter usitatus Ellin6076 and Rubrobacter xylanophilus DSM 9941;

Note 2. A homolog to MMP0607 is found in Dehalococcoides sp. CBDB1 and D. ethenogenes 195;

Note 3. A homolog to MMP1567 is found in 2 Desulfitobacterium hafniense strains (Firmicutes), and the CmuB protein from 3 species belonging to Rhizobiales of α-proteobacteria also show great similarity with MtrH;

Note 4. A homolog to MMP1564 is also found in Dechloromonas aromatica RCB;

Note 5. These 10 proteins are absent in the genome of Methanosphaera stadtmanae DSM 3091.
