Figure 4: Genome plasticity in PAIs of C. kroppenstedtii compared to other Corynebacterium species. The figure shows the alignment of C. aurimucosum ATCC 700975 (Ca_ATCC700975); C. diphtheriae NCTC 13129 (Cd_NCTC13129); C. efficiens YS-314 (Ce_YS-314); C. jeikeium K411 (Cj_K411); C. pseudotuberculosis strains 1002 (Cp_1002), C231 (Cp_C231), FRC41 (Cp_FRC41), I19 (Cp_I19) and PAT10 (Cp_PAT10); C. resistens DSM45100 (Cr_DSM45100); C. ulcerans 89 (Cul_89) and BR-AD 22 (Cu_BRAD22); C. urealyticum DSM7109 (Cur_DSM7109); C. variable DSM44702 (Cv_DSM44702); and, C. glutamicum R (Cg_R) and ATCC 13032 (Cg_ATCC13032), using the genome of C. kroppenstedtii DSM 44385 as a reference sequence. The outermost circle highlights the seventeen putative pathogenicity islands of C. kroppenstedtii (PiCk 1−17) in red. |
