Figure 4. Known and putative interactions between FasX and FCT region genes in serotype M1, M2, M6, and M28 GAS.

Figure 4

FasX bases-pairs with the 5ā€™-UTR of M1.cpa mRNA in M1 GAS isolates (A). For other tested serotypes putative regions of hybridization between FasX (blue nucleotides) and the 5ā€² end of FCT region mRNAs (black nucleotides) are shown for (B) M2 GAS, (C) M6 GAS, and (D) M28 GAS. The start codons (red nucleotides) and ribosome-binding sites (green nucleotides) of the mRNAs are highlighted. Lines between nucleotides of the mRNA and FasX highlight standard (Watson-Crick; black) and non-standard (Gā€“U wobble; grey) base-pairing interactions.
