Figures

FIG. 1
FIG. 1
The 2-min cluster of cell division and cell wall genes. Transcription is from left to right; T represents the only transcriptional terminator acting in this direction. The putative promoter in ftsW is deduced as explained in the text. The envA gene, whose product is involved in lipid A synthesis, is also called lpxC; the ftsI gene, whose product is PBP3, is also called pbpB.
