(A) Scheme of the T. forsythia ATCC 43037 S-layer O-glycan structure. Monosaccharide symbols are shown according to the Symbol Nomenclature for Glycans (SNFG) (Varki et al., 2015). Please note that the position of the branching Fuc remained unclear (Posch et al., 2011) until it was determined in the course of this study to be on the reducing-end Gal. (B) Scheme of the 27-kb protein O-glycosylation gene cluster of T. forsythia ATCC 43037. Wzx (black), flippase; pseBCFHGI (green), CMP-Pse biosynthesis genes; gtfSMILE (blue), Gtf genes; mtfJOY (yellow), Mtf genes; asnB (putative asparagine synthetase B), wecC (UDP-N-acetyl-D-mannosamine dehydrogenase) and wecB (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase) (purple); hypothetical proteins, HP (gray). Genes are not drawn to scale.
