FIG. 2.

Intrachromosomal comparisons of the left and right arm regions surrounding the ends of the TIRs of S. ambofaciens strains ATCC23877 and DSM40697 (A) and S. avermitilis (B). Duplicated regions between both arms are shaded in gray, and their sizes and percentages of identity are indicated. Black arrows represent ORFs similar to genes encoding transposases (or truncated transposases), and the terminal proteins are represented by the black circles. The SAV0 putative CDS was not predicted in reference 19 and was added in this work. cyt., cytochrome. aa, amino acid.
