An in silico analysis of T-box regulated genes and T-box evolution in prokaryotes, with emphasis on prediction of substrate specificity of transporters

Table 1 Overview of T-box regulated transporter genes in different Firmicutes. The type and number (between brackets) of transporters are displayed per species and according to their predicted specificity.

At the bottom the total fraction of regulated transporters is shown per family. ABC: ATP-binding cassette superfamily, APC: Amino acid-polyamine-organocation family, DAACS: dicaboxylate/amino acid:cation symporter family, LIVCS: leucine/isoleucine/valine cation symporter family, MFS: major facilitator superfamily, NHAC: Na⁺:H⁺ antiporter family, NSS: neurotransmitter:sodium family. Classification adopted from Saier [41].
