Figure 1. E. coli EC93 contains an orphan cdiA-CT/cdiI module.

Figure 1

The CDI region of E. coli EC93 is depicted, with cdiB, cdiA and cdiI genes shown in yellow, green and purple, respectively. The cdiA coding region upstream of the encoded VENN motif is shown in light green, and the cdiA-CT sequence is shown in dark green. The orphan cdiA-CT fragment (cdiA-CT o1) and orphan cdiI (cdiI o1) are dark green and purple, respectively. The nucleotide sequence of the cdiI - cdiA-CT o1 junction and the predicted reading frames are shown in detail. Sequences similar to transposable element genes are shown in red.
