Uneven distribution of cobamide biosynthesis and dependence in bacteria predicted by comparative genomics
The vitamin B(12) family of cofactors known as cobamides are essential for a variety of microbial metabolisms. We used comparative genomics of 11,000 bacterial species to analyze the extent and distribution of cobamide production and use across bacteria. We find that 86% of bacteria in this data set...
