Unfortunately, the major difficulty in formulating NANE arises from the lack of appropriate data on surfactant action in relevant non-aqueous media, or indeed, the dearth of suitable surfactant designed for such specialized system [13].
For this reason, in this work we focused on nanA, nanK, and nanE, which from now on we will refer to as the Nan cluster.
We demonstrated that NanA, the first enzyme in the catabolic pathway, has a distinct evolutionary history from NanE and NanK, with multiple instances of horizontal gene transfer found.
BLAST searches were used to identify homologues of NanA, NanE, and NanK from Vibrio cholerae N16961 and Staphylococcus aureus N315 in the database.
Channels of expression The children involved in the art and drama project received a visit last week from Nane Annan, who was on an official mission to Thailand with her husband, UN Secretary General Kofi Annan.
However, nanE and nanK from Yersinia spp, Shigella spp, E. coli, S. enterica, Pasteurella and H. somnus had significant aberrant GC content suggesting its evolutionary history differs from nanA.
In S. pneumoniae TIGR nanE and nanK from both clusters had an aberrant GC content; suggesting an independent history for the two clusters in this strain (see Additional file 7).
The NanE and NanK proteins from the two species of the genus Clostridium are located on different branches in both trees (Fig. 5a and 5b).
We reconstructed the phylogenetic history of the NanA, NanE, and NanK proteins from the 46 species and compared them to the species tree based on 16S rRNA.
