Figure 3. Putative structure of GpbC of TW strains and MT8148. (A) Map of putative nucleotide structure of gbpC among MT8148 and TW strains. A base pair (BP) scale is illustrated above the map. Cell wall anchored region. 39 amino acid deletions seen in TW871 strain. (B) C-terminus deduced amino acid alignment of GbpC of MT8148 and TW strains. 460-580 at the top of (B) indicates the serial number of deduced amino acids in MT8148.
