Comparison of the Tn916-like integrative conjugative elements (ICE) of serotype 15A isolates and the S. pneumoniae G54 strain. Red bands between the sequences indicate BLASTN matches. The ermB element was inserted between ORF19 and ORF20 of Tn916. The ICE structures were homologous among the G54, serotype 15A-ST63, and serotype 15A-ST9084 strains; however, the PMEN15A-25 strain had different insertions at the same positions as the other strains.
