FIG 1

Orphan LuxR-type receptor/transcription factor in members of the Methylomonas genus. (A) LW13 genomic region containing the orphan receptor gene mmsR and the predicted MmsR binding site (green arrow) (also see Fig. 2A) upstream of a neighboring gene cluster. Locus tags listed below ORFs are preceded by U737_12 and correspond to the LW13 genome described in this work. (B) Amino acid sequence comparison of the LuxR-type receptor MbaR from M. tundripaludum 21/22 (IMG locus tag T451DRAFT_0820) and homologs from Methylomonas strains, including Methylomonas sp. strain LW13 (U737_12750), Methylomonas denitrificans FJG1 (IMG locus tag Ga0213656_112931), Methylomonas methanica S1/NCIMB 11130 (IMG locus tag Ga0133021_101333), and Methylomonas sp. strain MK1 (IMG locus tag G006DRAFT_0604). Black boxes indicate amino acids conserved in LuxR-type transcription factors/receptors that bind acyl-HSLs (26, 27).
