Sortase-dependent pilus gene clusters of UCC2003. Genetic organization of the locus containing bbr_0113 (A) and bbr_01889 (B). Coding sequences are indicated with an arrow, with the annotated bbr_0113 (green) bbr_1889 ORF (grey) re-named bbr_0113b and bbr_1889b. The corresponding upstream ORF is named bbr_0113a (blue) and bbr_1889 (brown). Other sortase-dependent pilus genes are highlighted in white and the dedicated sortase enzyme by a stripped arrow. Signal peptide and LPTxG motifs are indicated by vertical red and yellow bars respectively. The UCC2003 genomic coordinates of NC_020517.1 are indicated above the arrow.
