Correspondance analysis of COGs in the genomes of Nocardia cyriacygeorgica and relatives identified on the Mage platform. COGs were retrieved for (Am) A. mediterranei, (Cd) C. diphtheriae, (Cg) C. glutamicum, (Mt) M. tuberculosis, (Ms) M. smegmatis, (Nc) N. cyriacigeorgica, (Nf) N. farcinica, (Re), R. equi, (Rj) R. jostii. The pathogens are highlighted in red, the non-pathogens or saprophytic bacteria in blue and the Nocardia in orange. The COGs comprise (A) RNA processing and modification, (B) Chromatin structure and dynamics, (C) Energy production and conversion, (D) Cell cycle control, cell division, chromosome partitioning, (E) Amino acid transport and metabolism, (F) Nucleotide transport and metabolism, (G) Carbohydrate transport and metabolism, (H) Coenzyme transport and metabolism, (I) Lipid transport and metabolism, (J) Translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis, (K) Transcription, (L) Replication, recombination and repair, (M) Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis, (N) Cell motility, (O) Posttranslational modification, protein turnover, chaperones, (P) Inorganic ion transport and metabolism, (Q) Secondary metabolites biosynthesis, transport and catabolism, (R) General function prediction only, (S) Function unknown, (T) Signal transduction mechanisms, (U) Intracellular trafficking, secretion, and vesicular transport, (V) Defense mechanisms. The first two principal components that represent respectively 47.7% (horizontal axis) and 23.5% (vertical axis) of the total variance of the dataset are plotted against one another.
