Changes within either TMD resulting in increased or decreased side-chain bulk indicated by shading or boxes, respectively. Dlp12 and Qin are cryptic lambdoid prophages of E. coli K-12 (91). PA-2 is the lambdoid prophage of a porcine strain of E. coli (18). 933W is the lambdoid prophage carrying the Shiga-like toxin gene in the hemorrhagic E. coli strain O157:H7 (87).
