FIG. 3.

Comparison of the putative oriT of pAH82 with oriT regions of plasmids pIP501 and pMRC01. The pIP501 sequence represents the complement of bp 1229 to 1314, the pMRC01 sequence represents bp 1770 to 1855, and the pAH82 sequence represents bp 11841 to 11926. Inverted repeats are indicated by solid arrows. A consensus GAA sequence central to many of the inverted repeat structures is highlighted in bold. Sequence motifs shared by pIP501, pMRC01, and pAH82 are underlined. Where known, the nic site is indicated by a vertical arrow.
