The <i>aadE</i>*-<i>sat4</i>-<i>aphA-3</i> Gene Cluster of <i>Mycoplasma bovirhinis</i> HAZ141_2 Undergoes Genomic Rearrangements Influencing the Primary Promoter Sequence
The 54 kb GC-rich prophage region of <i>Mycoplasma bovirhinis</i> HAZ141_2 contains three structural ‘compartments’, one of which is a highly transmittable cluster of three genes, <i>aadE</i>-like (<i>aadE</i>*), <i>sat4</i>, and <i>aphA-3</i&...
