Figure 7

Schematic comparison of the integration site of the prophage carrying antimicrobial resistance genes for 2 invasive group A Streptococcus emm93.0 type strains from Israel and 1 from Spain. Arrows indicate gene arrangement in the presumed insertion site of the prophage, the rlmD gene (purple). The prophage contains gene sequences of antibiotic resistance related genes (ant(6)Ia, aph(3')IIIa, lsaE and lnuB), phage related genes and other non-Streptococcus genes. The gray regions indicate 80%–100% sequence identity.
