Comparative analysis of Aeromonas sp. Comparative analysis of Aeromonas sp. IncU-type plasmids and the MICE of plasmid pAC3 containing a MITE. (A) Plasmids pAH6 and pP2G1 were used for comparative analysis with plasmid pAC3. Shaded connections between the plasmids show the conserved and shared regions (>99% identity). The red box and arrow indicate the MICE and the MITE, respectively. (B) Genetic map of the MICE region carrying the MITE sequence in plasmid pAC3. IRR, right inverted repeat; IRL, left inverted repeat. Dae-Wi Kim et al. mSphere 2017; doi:10.1128/mSphere.00203-17
