The plasmid pYpsIP31758.1 type IVB locus (A) encodes 28 genes and is compared to that of C. burnetti RSA493 (B) and L. pneumophila Philadelphia 1 (C). The scale in bp indicates the genomic location of the type IVB locus from YpsIP31758_B0095 to YpsIP31758_B0122. Corresponding CDSs involved in type IVB pilus assembly are colored accordingly; species-specific CDSs often found interspersed are colored white. icm/dot genes that are unique to C. burnetti and L. pneumophila are colored in dark gray and light gray, respectively.
