Comparison of the rtx gene regions of B. elkanii USDA94 and B. japonicum USDA110. The nucleotide sequence of the rtx gene region of B. japonicum USAD110 (8,641 bp) is 79% homologous to that of B. elkanii USDA94. The amino acid sequences of rtxC, ORF2, and ORF4 of B. japonicum USAD110 show 96, 87, and 89% identity to those of B. elkanii USDA94, respectively. The rtxA and ORF3 regions of B. japonicum USAD110 are interrupted and fragmented compared with those of B. elkanii USDA94. Numbers indicate lengths (in base pairs) of genes and intergenic regions.
