Genome organization and comparison of T7 islands in S.flexneri 2457T and S.flexneri 301. Note that one of the K1F-like promoters in 301-3 has been split by an insertion sequence, IS911. The integrase genes in the islands T-1 and 301-1 have also been split into N-terminal and C-terminal domains (see Supplementary Figure S2). Shaded parallelograms indicate regions of similarity (darker shades indicate higher levels of similarity). The first gene on the left is named by its GenBank locus_tag (e.g. S1741), while, to conserve space, the remaining genes are only numbered. The Hyp3 genes in the islands T-1, 301-1, T-3 and 301-3 were predicted in this study by using the ORF Finder (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gorf/gorf.html) and Blastx (against the Hyp3 protein of island BS512, see Figure 7). The symbol keys also apply to Figures 5C, 7, 8, 9 and Supplementary Figure S5.
