FIG. 1.
Nucleotide sequence of a 2,622-bp fragment of recombinant plasmid pA-1 containing the blaOXA-48 gene. The deduced amino acid sequence is designated in single-letter code below the nucleotide sequence. The start codons of the ORFs are indicated by horizontal arrows. The left inverted repeat (IRL) of IS1999 is shaded in gray, and the putative −35 and −10 promoter sequences (Pout) provided by the insertion sequence element are underlined. The tnpA transposase gene is indicated. The asterisk indicates the stop codon, and the vertical arrow indicates the Sau3AI cloning insertion site in pVT-1.
