TABLE 3.
Bacterial strains predicted to contain d-QuiNAc based on the presence of genes encoding homologs of R. etli CE3 WreV and WreQ in their genome
WreQ was used as the query sequence in a BLAST search against the non-redundant protein sequence (nr) database using the blastp algorithm. Bacterial strains selected all meet the following criteria: 1) encode a WreQ homolog with lower E-value than that of WbpV, 7e−91 (the WreQ homolog of P. aeruginosa O6), 2) have a fully sequenced genome, and 3) encode a WreV homolog (40 of 41 strains contain both WreV and WreQ homologs).
