IS231-MIC231 elements from Bacillus cereus sensu lato are modular.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Jul 2004

De Palmenaer Daniel, Vermeiren Céline, Mahillon Jacques

Abstract excerpt

Summary IS231A was originally discovered in Bacillus thuringiensis as a typical 1.6 kb insertion sequence (IS) displaying 20 bp inverted repeats (IR) flanking a transposase gene. A first major variation of this canonical organization was found in MIC231A1. This mobile insertion cassette (MIC), delineated by IS231A-related extremities, contained an active d-stereospecific endopeptidase (adp) gene instead of a...
