Genomic structure and reporter constructs. ORFs are indicated above the chromosome, represented by the different cosmids. ORFs in black aregrd and wrt genes, gray ORFs are neighboring genes, small gray ORFs beneath grd or wrt genes are the computer predictions from ACeDB. Fragments used for reporter constructs are drawn above the respective ORFs: (gfp) Hatched boxes; (lacZ) dark gray boxes. wrt-7 and wrt-8 are separated from each other by two intervening ORFs, which are themselves a tandem duplication. Upstream of wrt-8, two otherH02K04-1A related ORFs are also present, indicating that a duplication of this whole gene cluster occurred.
