FIG. 1.

Genetic organization of the LCR plasmid, pCD1, of Y. pestis KIM5. The map shows significant ORFs and transposable elements as well as replication and partitioning regions. For genes on the outside of the map, transcription proceeds clockwise. Genes on the inside are transcribed from the complementary strand. The oriR and sopC regions are not transcribed. The placement of transposable elements (solid boxes) does not indicate the direction of transcription. A d indicates a defective element, while a p indicates a partial element. Most IS remnants are not denoted on this figure.
