Mx4885. (A) Shown is a physical map of the Mx4885 neighborhood. ORFs are indicated by large arrows. The +1 map coordinate is the first nucleotide in the translation start codon of Mx4885, and 1380 is the last nucleotide of the translation stop. Plasmids containing the indicated DNA fragments of the Mx4885 region are shown on the lines below the physical map. (B) Shown is the aggregate morphology of wild type (DK1622) and Mx4885::K_m mutant (DK12702) starved on CF agar for the indicated periods of time. (Scale bar, 0.5 mm.)
