Enhanced Expression of lmb Gene Encoding Laminin-Binding Protein in Streptococcus agalactiae Strains Harboring IS1548 in scpB-lmb Intergenic Region
Figure 1
Genomic organization of the scpB-lmb intergenic region.
Dark grey box represents the noncoding spacer region. Primer set scpB3382/rlmb51 was used to determine the structure of the scpB-lmb intergenic region. The presence of the insertion sequence IS1548 and of the group II intron GBSi1 in the spacer was then confirmed using primer sets scpB3382/r1S1548, and scpB3382/rGBSi143.
