Identification of the Major Expressed S-Layer and Cell Surface-Layer-Related Proteins in the Model Methanogenic Archaea: Methanosarcina barkeri Fusaro and Methanosarcina acetivorans C2A

Figure 5

Phylogenetic tree of all DUF1608-containing genes in sequenced genomes of Methanosarcina and in other archaeal species. The organisms are: M. acetivorans, MA; M. mazei, MM; M. barkeri, Mbar_A; M. burtonii, Mbur_; Methanosaeta thermophila PT., Mthe_; Haloarcula marismortui, rrnAC; Natronomonas pharaonis DSM2160, NP. The indicated major (•) and minor (°) expressed S-layer proteins are described in the text.
