Analysis of LT helices in the Deinococcota. Deinococcota trees and RNAClust Deinococcus radiodurans consensus structures in both 16S (A) and (C) and 23S (B) and (D). The position of D. radioduran's 3 LT sequences on the trees (A and B) is indicated by a black arcing line. In both 16S and 23S, the consensus structures show an LT stem, albeit a weak one. Full-page figures for each structure in (C) and (D) are available in Supplemental Material D.
