  1. *Rows 1-3: archaeal class I RNRs transferred from halophilic bacteria, together with class I RNRs from the salt-tolerant bacterium Salinibacter ruber and a halophage (bold font, rows 4 & 5). Rows 6-10: archaeal class I RNRs that are similar to the sequences from the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis (bold, row 11).
