A comparison of the CPS locus sequence between serotype 6B variant and wild type. These variants were initially detected by microarray as having atypical CPS genes and were further analysed by whole-genome sequencing. A comparative analysis of the CPS locus sequences between variants of serotype 6B and reference sequence CR931639 was performed using Artemis. The divergent gene(s) for the variant are highlighted in red. The 6B variant [ERS096169] harboured an intact allele of the licD-phosphotransferase gene, while a 297 bp deletion was observed in the reference
