From: Comparative genome analysis identifies few traits unique to the Escherichia coli ST131 H30Rx clade and extensive mosaicism at the capsule locus

Figure 2

Capsule locus genetics of a collection of E. coli ST131 H30Rx genomes. Figure showing all of the capsule loci identified in available E. coli ST131 genomes. The CDS marked in green are the kpsF-E-D-UC-S cluster, and those in red the kpsT-M cluster, both of which are highly conserved across all E. coli capsules. The CDS marked in cyan are unique CDS to that capsule type. The grey shading indicates the level of identity between any given pair of CDS. The K antigen identified for each genetic capsule type is indicated in letters to the left, whilst the strain the capsule locus belongs to is indicated by letters to the right.
