Phylogenetic analysis of lipase domains in patatin-like phospholipases. The conserved domain of ExoU contains a patatin-like phospholipase motif. Patatin, a storage protein in potato tubers, cucumbers, and rubber latex, exhibits lipase activity and shares a catalytic dyad structure with mammalian phospholipase A2 (PLA2). The catalytic domains of ExoU align with those of patatin, human calcium-independent PLA2 (iPLA2) and cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2). Phylogenetic analysis was conducted by using ClustalW [39].
