Sequence identity of individual genes within the neurotoxin gene cluster of strain Chemnitz encoding BoNT/A8 compared to other BoNT/A, E and F sero- and subtypes located in an <i>ha</i>^-<i>orfx</i>⁺ gene cluster on nucleotide levels.^*

* The neurotoxin gene clusters encoding for BoNT, NTNHA, p47, BotR and the OrfX1, OrfX2 and OrfX3 proteins were compared between strain Chemnitz (BoNT/A8) and the other BoNT/A subtypes (A1 to A7) and percent identities are given either on nucleic acid level (A) or on amino acid level (B). For comparison the identities to BoNT/E and BoNT/F also located within an ha-orfX+ neurotoxin gene cluster are displayed, too. Highest identities (±0.5) are depicted in bold and lowest identities (±0.5) are depicted in italic. Empty cells indicate that no sequence data exist while n/a denotes the absence of certain genes from the neurotoxin gene cluster.
