Table 1.

Similarities of amino acid sequences encoded by the Wittenberg clones

Sequence cluster	No. of clones sequenced	Amino acid sequence identity (%)
Sequence cluster	No. of clones sequenced	Within the cluster	With cluster II	With cluster III	With the most similar sequence in the database^a
I	37	97–100	85–88	38–42	96^b
II	12	97–100		37–38	100/93^c
III	2	99			56/43^d

If the most similar sequence belongs to a putative enzyme, a second value is given, which refers to the most similar sequence of a nonputative enzyme.

Biphenyl dioxygenase alpha subunit from B. xenovorans LB400 (NCBI Protein Database accession no. ABE37059).

Putative ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase alpha subunit from Burkholderia sp. strain WBF3 (accession no. ABG75584) and strain WBF4 (accession no. ABG75585)/biphenyl dioxygenase alpha subunit from P. pseudoalcaligenes KF707 (accession no. Q52028).

Putative ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase alpha subunit from B. ambifaria IOP40-10 (accession no. EDT02834)/biphenyl dioxygenase alpha subunit from R. jostii RHA1 (accession no. BAA06868).
