Figure 6.

Map showing the organization of nar operon and neighboring genes involved in denitrification located on the megaplasmids of T. oshimai JL-2 (pTHEOS01) and T. thermophilusJL-18 (pTTJL1801) and the chromosome of T. scotoductus SA-01. Fe: heme protein-containing nitrite reductase, Cu: copper-containing nitrite reductase. Numbers below the genes indicate the provisional ORF numbers in T. oshimai JL-2 (Theos_1057–Theos_1036) and T. thermophilus JL-18 (TtJL18_2297 to TtJL18_2327), the locations in the megaplasmid are indicated below. nar: nitrate reductase; nir: nitrite reductase; nos: nitric oxidereductase; dnr: denitrification regulator [41–43].
