Figure 6. Phylogenetic relationships between protein sequences of nine pAPEC-1-associated virulence genes (a) tsh, (b) iss, (c) cvaC, (d) iroN, (e) sitA, (f) iucC, (g) ompT, (h) hlyF, and (i) etsA and related genes from other sources.

Figure 6

The phylogenetic trees were constructed by neighbor-joining analysis. The phylogenetic groups are given on the right. Genes from pAPEC-1 (*); genes of APEC (normal arrow); and genes of other ExPEC (round arrow) are indicated.
