Malodour producing staphylococci contain a unique C-S lyase enzyme. Maximum likelihood tree of PLP dependent C-S lyases from representative bacterial species. A unique PLP dependent PatB enzyme is found in a distinct phylogenetic clade of staphylococcal species, which we refer to as malodour producing staphylococci (coloured orange, G1). Coloured dots represent selected PLP-dependent enzymes purified for further biochemical characterisation. Orthologous PatB enzymes found in other Staphylococcusal spp. are indicated by G1, G2 and G3. Phylogenetic tree was generated using iTOL (https://itol.embl.de/).
