A horizontally acquired fatty acid biosynthesis operon in C. burnetii. (A) Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic tree for CBU_0038, a fatty acid biosynthesis gene. Gammaproteobacteria is colored red, Delta/Epsilonproteobacteria in green, Spirochaetes in brown, Bacteriodetes in purple, and Firmicutes in blue. Bootstrap values of > 50 are indicated at the nodes. (B) Fatty acid biosynthesis genes have similar arrangement in C. burnetii and Spirochaeta africana, and an IS1111A transposase is located next to the operon in C. burnetii.
