AAZ56163.1]), and a GH55 sequence (from Arthrobacter sp. NHB-10 [GenBank accession no. BAF52916.1]) were aligned by using the UniProt Align tool (http://www.uniprot.org/align). The phylogenetic tree was inferred from the alignments with the minimum linkage method and was drawn by using MAFFT (version 7) (http://mafft.cbrc.jp/alignment/software).
