Plasmid map of pGL2 and DNA sequence similarity with other lactic bacteria plasmids.

<p><i>Leuconostoc kimchii</i> IMSNU 11154 plasmid LkipL48, <i>Lactobacillus sakei</i> plasmid pYSI8, <i>Lactobacillus brevis</i> plasmid pLB925A01 and <i>Lactobacillus plantarum</i> WCFS1 plasmid pWCFS102 were those exhibiting the highest coverage/similarity to pGL2. The Orfs are indicated by arrows showing the direction of transcription. The gene annotations are positioned at the midpoint of each gene.
