References are given for transcripts shown to be expressed in previous studies; c, crick strand; as1234, antisense transcript to the gene SC O1234, cis, transcript verified as cis-encoded RNA (see Supplemental Figure 5); new/alternative ORF, sRNA located within or close to a conserved/alternative but up to now not yet annotated open reading frame.
Antisense transcript which overlaps with both SC O4692 and SC O4693
A 44 amino acids (aa) long ORF is located close to scr1821 which is conserved in a number of Streptomyces strains. An additional conserved ORF 29 nt downstream of the transcript is also conserved in a large number of bacteria.
scr3035 is located sense to a 183 aa long ORF that is annotated as hypothetical protein in several Streptomyces strains.
scr4164 overlaps with the 3′end of a 93 aa ORF conserved in several streptomyces species.
scr5822 covers a 78 aa ORF conserved in numerous different bacteria. 2–5The location of these new ORFs is displayed in Supplemental Figure 3.
There is an alternative ORF to SC O1979 that is 78 aa longer on the 5′end of the gene. This longer fragment is conserved in several Streptomyces strains and covers scr1980.
The 5′end of ORF 3323 is annotated at 3675442 nt at NCBI and at 3675181 nt at strepDB. In the latter case, scr3323 represents the 5′UTR of that gene.
There is an alternative ORF to SC O4799 that is 23 aa longer on the 5′end of the gene. This longer fragment is conserved in several Streptomyces strains and covers scr4800.
There is an alternative ORF to SC O5855 that is 11 aa longer on the 5′ end of the gene. This longer fragment is conserved in several Streptomyces strains. The distance to scr5856 in that case is only 44 nt, so below our threshold. 6,8,9The location of the alternative ORFs is displayed in Supplemental Figure 4.
