Schematic representations of cps gene clusters in S. suis 35 serotypes. The pattern of chromosomal locus and homology group (HG) of initial transferase in each cps gene cluster are shown in parentheses. Each colored arrow represents the gene whose predicted function is shown in the right panel. Gene names (“cps” omitted) of the first and last cps genes, initial transferase genes, and wzx and wzy genes in each cps gene cluster are appended to the corresponding arrows. Of note, the names of cps genes in this study are not necessarily identical to those in a previous study (17). Scale bar indicates the size of 40 kbp in units of 10-kbp increments.
