a

Results of BLASTP using the protein encoded by Saci_1367 (OGG2 family) or Pae2237 (AGOG family) as the query; exemplary species of cultured archaea are listed in order of decreasing similarity to the query sequence.

b

For reference, approximate expectation values are listed for selected genera or species (some are averaged over multiple sequences).

c

Reflects new genus assignment of Sulfolobus solfataricus (7).

d

Pyrobaculum genomes were confirmed to lack OGG2 representatives.
