a

Numbers of complete genomes with the analyzed regulon(s) are shown in parentheses.

b

The existence and copy number of candidate regulators of FAD genes, FadR, PsrA, and FadP, are shown by “R,” “A,” and “P,” respectively.

c

Candidate FadR-regulated genes are underlined. Candidate PsrA-regulated genes are shown in lightface type. Candidate FadP-regulated genes are shown in boldface type. Operon structures of genes are not shown. For candidate regulon members that are not always regulated within a taxonomic group, the number of genomes that have regulated orthologs is given in parentheses. Genes that are regulated by both FadR and PsrA are in square brackets.

d

Functional roles of genes are listed in Table S8 in the supplemental material. Locus tags are given for groups of orthologous genes that lack a conventional common name. The genome-specific locus tags of candidate regulon members are given in Tables S4 to S6 in the supplemental material.
