The 102-Kilobase Unstable Region of Yersinia pestis Comprises a High-Pathogenicity Island Linked to a Pigmentation Segment Which Undergoes Internal Rearrangement

Several pathogenicity islands have recently been identified in different bacterial species, including a high-pathogenicity island (HPI) in Yersinia enterocolitica 1B. In Y. pestis, a 102-kb chromosomal fragment (pgm locus) that carries genes involved in iron acquisition and colony pigmentation can b...
