Comparison of the plasmid pKKS825 (EMBL accession no. FN377602) identified in the present study with the tet(L)-dfrK segment of plasmid pKKS2187 (accession no. FM207105). The arrows indicate the extents and directions of the transcription of the genes rep, repU (plasmid replication), tet(L) (tetracycline resistance), dfrK (trimethoprim resistance), pre/mob (plasmid recombination/mobilization), and ΔtnpB (truncated transposase B). The different rep and pre/mob genes are displayed in different shadings to underline their structural differences. The IS257 elements in the map of pKKS2187 are shown as black boxes with the white arrows indicating the transposase tnp genes. The regions of >99% homology between pKKS825 and pKKS2187 are marked by gray shading. The sequences at the junctions of pKKS2187-homologous and -nonhomologous parts in pKKS825 are shown in comparison to the corresponding pKKS2187 sequence between the two maps; the 7-bp direct repeats are shown in boxes.
