Global distribution of putative LRS among prokaryotes. The membrane proteins from the five S. mutans LRS were used as queries to identify potential LRS within the genome data of the NCBI non-redundant nucleotide collection (nr/nt) and whole genome shotgun (wgs) databases. The sizes of the filled circles are proportional to the number of identified genera encoding putative LRS matching to each of the corresponding S. mutans-type LRS.
