Figure 1

Genetic structure and sequence alignment of Hfq. (A) Genetic structure of hfq and neighboring regions. Vp, V. parahaemolyticus strain RIMD2210633 (accession no. BA000032); Vc, V. cholerae (accession no. NP_230001); Ec, E. coli serotype O157:H7 (accession no. NP_313175). Arrows indicate the direction of transcription. The numbers of amino acids (aa) that comprise the proteins are indicated. (B) Sequence alignment of Hfq from various pathogens. Dashes indicate amino acid residues that are identical to those in V. parahaemolyticus. All Hfq amino acid sequences were obtained from GenBank. Vp, V. parahaemolyticus strain RIMD2210633 (accession no. BA000032); Vc, V. cholerae (accession no. NP_230001); Vv, V. vulnificus (accession no. NP_760222); Pa, P. aeruginosa (accession no. NP_233631); O157, E. coli serotype O157:H7 (accession no. NP_313175); St, S. typhi (accession no. NP_458797).
