Figure 6. The bvgSA and kps loci of C. metallidurans CH34.

Figure 6

Genomic region on the CHR2 replicon of C. metallidurans CH34 covering the bvgSA locus encoding a master virulence regulon (Rmet_5710, _5714, _5724) and the kps locus for synthesis and transport of capsular polysaccharides (Rmet_5729 to _5737). Relevant synteny maps are given for 11 organisms. Abbreviations: Cpin, C. pinatubonensis JMP134; Ceut, C. eutrophus H16; Ctai, C. taiwanensis; Bpet, B. petrii DSM 12804; Bbro, Bordetella bronchiseptica RB50; Paer, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1; Bpar, B. parapertussis 12822; Bper, B. pertussis Tohama I; Ecol-A, avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC01); Ecol-U, uripathogenic E. coli (UTI89); Ecol-K, E. coli K12. A nearby IS1088 element (Rmet_5718) is indicated with a blue rectangle in the +1 reading frame (see text).
