Example sentences for: proteobacteria

How can you use “proteobacteria” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • In contrast, the Bro-N domain was more widely distributed, occurring in a stand-alone form or combined with other domains in proteins from temperate phages that infect Gram-positive bacteria and Myxococcus xanthus , and proteins encoded in the genomes of proteobacteria and Gram-positive bacteria.

  • The extensive spread of this version of the domain in non-photosynthetic proteobacteria such as the rhizobia, suggest that a similar mechanism of regulating electron transfers may, perhaps, be used in regulating non-photosynthetic electron-transfer reactions.

  • Either placement had poor bootstrap support, and given the relatively low sequence homology of this clade to either of the other major bacterial arsC groups (50% similarity to the Low GC Gram positives, 40% similarity to the Enterobacteriales/α-Proteobacteria group) we suspect that this group might represent a fourth distinct group of arsenate reductases, making its placement in a binary tree difficult.

  • the various Proteobacteria, Low GC Gram-positives, Actinobacteria) formed expected patterns.

  • The 16S rRNA based phylogenetic tree (Figure 1) generally matched the accepted 16S rRNA model with clear separation of the two prokaryotic domains and the subsequent divergence of Eukarya (represented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae ) from Archaea [ 31 ] . Minor inconsistencies such as Ralstonia solanacearum (β-Proteobacteria) forming a deep branch within the γ-Proteobacteria, or Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fusobacteria) and Leptospira interrogans (Spirochetes) grouping loosely with the Gram-positive Bacteria are likely the result of the limited data set used (they were the only representatives of their respective phyla that had listed arsC genes) and do not challenge established relationships.
