The numbers assigned to the different XerC/D-like recognition sites located in Ab242 plasmids were arbitrarily chosen.
In each of the inferred XerC/D sites the presence of the same nucleotide in a given position (reflecting an invariant positions in all 17 sequences) is denoted with a dot sign (.), otherwise the corresponding nucleotide is indicated in lowercase letters.
Plasmid resulting from the fusion of pAb242_25 and pAb242_12.
New consensus derived from the above XerC/D-like sites identified in Ab242 plasmids.
