Tyrosine transposase genes. A) Different tyrosine transposase genes are flanked by REP sequences, either monomers or dimers (−−-•), or by unrelated inverted repeats (→) at the indicated bp distances. 5′ov and 3′ov refer to flanking sequences overlapping tyrosine transposase genes at the 5′ or 3′ end, respectively. B) The sequences of the double inverted repeats flanking P. putida 607 and P. fluorescens 4255 are reported. Palindromic residues are underlined, degenerated GTAG-1 sequences are boxed.
