From: Genomic islands from five strains of Burkholderia pseudomallei
Predicted site-specific recombination (SSR) events at tRNA-Arg (CGA) in B. pseudomallei K96243 and B. thailandensis E264 and the relative genomic region in B. mallei ATCC23344. (a) An extra recombinant tRNA-Ser (CGA) was created in the genomes of these two bacterial strains by SSR; parallel dash lines indicate identical regions of the tRNA genes. (b) Nucleotide sequences of the tRNA-Arg and the recombinant tRNA-Ser; the predicted SSR-recognition site of tRNA-Arg in strains K96243 and E264 is underlined, and the identical regions between these two tRNA genes are highlighted in blue.
