Fig 6. Cosegregation of Isu1/IscU-M and frataxin in global taxonomy.

Fig 6

Distribution of species containing M (red letter) versus C I L V (blue letters) at the X position of the motif LPPVK LH CSX LA and correlation with the presence of frataxin. The presence of frataxin is indicated by a red colored box next to each species in the taxonomic tree. The depicted species were chosen to maximize diversity. The species are displayed using the NCBI Taxonomy browser according to their positions in the NCBI Taxonomy Database. The arrow connecting shaded areas in Proteobacteria and Eukaryota represents the direction of possible horizontal gene transfer occurring during mitochondrial creation.
