FIG. 3.

Sequence of the 7,240 bp of R. opacus 1CP DNA cloned in pRER5, pRER7, and pRER61. The predicted amino acid sequences of the open reading frames are shown below the DNA sequence. Amino acid sequences obtained by direct sequencing of proteins or tryptic peptides are underlined. For clcB, which is divergently transcribed from all other open reading frames, the complementary (in this case, coding) strand is also given. A segment between clcR and clcA, which forms a hairpin structure and possibly represents a transcription terminator, is indicated by two arrows of opposite orientation. An imperfect inverted repeat is represented by underlined and italicized bases between clcB and clcR as well as downstream of ORF5.
