Figure S1 - Clostridium perfringens Delta Toxin Is Sequence Related to Beta Toxin, NetB, and Staphylococcus Pore-Forming Toxins, but Shows Functional Differences

Delta toxin gene (cpd) and flanking genes. Nucleotide sequence and amino acid translation of the Delta toxin gene and the flanking genes, orfX1 (upstream of Delta gene) and orfX2 (downstream of Delta gene) from C. perfringens CP24-03. The predicted Shine Dalgarno (GGGGTG) is underlined. The predicted signal peptide of Delta toxin is italicized. Delta peptides which have been sequenced by protein microsequencing are underlined with dashed line. Inverted repeat is indicated by arrows beneath the sequence. (GeneBank accession number EU545552).
