FIG. 2.

Physical structures of the regions disrupted by Tn917-LTV3 insertions. (A) Chromosomal region of the Ω001 and Ω002 insertions. (B) Chromosomal region of the Ω003 insertion. The gene names given are those identified in the L. monocytogenes EGD-e sequencing project. Unknown genes are labeled as ORFs. Tn917-LTV3 insertions are indicated by triangles. The placement of the triangle on the sequence indicates the orientation of the insertion. The arrow indicating the direction of transcription is relevant for both panels A and B. The asterisks indicate the positions of primers used for RT-PCR to determine cotranscription with genes downstream of the insertions. EII-A, IIB, and EII-C, enzymes IIA, IIB, and IIC, respectively.
