Schematic representation of the five genomic regions encoding putative RRNPP-type quorum-sensing systems in Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 (HMT). Genomic regions were designated as QSS1 (a), QSS2 (b), QSS3 (c), QSS4 (d) and QSS5 (e), respectively. Gene names are the following: HP, hypothetical protein; CHP, conserved hypothetical protein; memb, membrane-associated protein; spo0E, Spo0E-like sporulation regulatory protein; qssR1-5, putative RRNPP-type regulator (QssR1 to QssR5); qssP1-5; cognate signaling peptide precursor (QssP1 to QssP5); resE1, sensor histidine kinase ResE; xerD2, site-specific recombinase XerD; iscU, NifU-like protein involved in Fe-S cluster formation; acpP, acyl carrier protein; sfp, phosphopantetheine-protein transferase; grsT, oleoyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) hydrolase. The number indicates the nucleotide base pairs between two genes. The arrows in red represent the genes that have been deleted in this study
