Effects of Arsenite Resistance on the Growth and Functional Gene Expression of Leptospirillum ferriphilum and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans in Pure Culture and Coculture

Figure 5

Possible genetic organization of the ORFs in the putative Lf (YSK)Ars and At (A01)Ars ars operon based on the finished sequencing and annotation of L. ferriphilum YSK and At. ferrooxidans A01. The dashed line means the two genes are not connected. The arrow indicates the transcription direction.
