From: Unveiling the fructose metabolism system in Staphylococcus aureus: insights into the regulatory role of FruR and the FruRKT operon in bacterial fitness

Fig. 1

(A) Genetic organization of fruRKT operon. The fruRKT genes were transcribed from the identical site “G”, marked with a star, which corresponds to the “+1” position. A prototypical σ70-regulated promoter featuring the conserved − 10 and − 35 regions was indicated. (B) Sequence alignment of FruR protein from S. aureus (indicated by a red star) and established DeoR proteins from diverse bacterial species, with the respective organism names provided in the materials and methods section. (C) The phylogenetic tree derived from the alignment depicted in figure B was constructed utilizing the neighbor-joining method and the Jukes-Cantor protein distance model to compute the resultant tree
