, A phylogenetic tree based on MglB sequences with a Ct-helix extension (longer than 15 residues beyond the RBl/LC7 domain) and a corresponding positively charged ? 5 helix. The bacterial phyla demonstrate that these belong to varied classes and are not restricted to Myxococcus. MxMglB (UniProt ID: Q1DB03) and TtMglB (UniProt ID: Q5SJ82) are highlighted in shaded boxes, whereas the sequences for which the positively charged residues are not present in the corresponding coupled MglA sequences are highlighted by a star, S5 Fig. Conservation of D/E rich Ct-helix in MglA-like proteins

The GTPase domains are shown in shades of green (dark green for eukaryotic GTPases, and pale green for MxMglA), the Rbl/LC7 domains in shades of magenta (dark shades for eukaryotic proteins and light pink for MxMglB), and insertions to the Rbl/LC7 fold and other associated proteins in gray. The insertions to the Rbl/LC7 fold or associated protein loops that contribute to the GEF activity are highlighted in dark orange and boxed, whereas the Ct-helix of MglB is in light orange, S6 Fig. Eukaryotic GTPases associated with GEFs of Roadblock/LC7 domain.

MxMglA and MxMglB variants were used in a ratio of 1:2 considering monomeric molecular weight of MxMglB. The release of GDP was estimated using NADH-based enzyme-coupled assay. The lines corresponding to MxMglAB and MxMglB Rhelix are shown with shaded zones depicting the error represent the average of at least 3 repeats, whereas MxMglB ?Ct and MxMglA are shown without highlighting error because the data in this figure panel represent only 2 repeats. The numerical data for the figure panel have been provided in the respective sheets in S1 Data ,
