Table 1.

Distribution of cuckoo RNAs. The table summarizes the number of cuckoo RNAs and their distribution across CINs for each species. The occurrences of cuckoo RNAs divided into structural variants are displayed in columns HP2 to HP4 Columns CIN1–CIN6 show the distribution of cuckoo RNAs within the 6 CINs. Each digit represents a cuckoo RNA within a CIN, while the digit's value reflects the number of modules. Unless denoted by a leading character (c = secondary chromosome, p = plasmid) a CIN and therefore the corresponding cuckoo RNA is located on the primary chromosome of the respective bacterium. The first row, for example, reads in words as follows: “In Brucella abortus A13334, we find 4 cuckoo RNAs, one with 2 hairpins, 2 with 3 hairpins, and one with 4 hairpins. The 4HP cuckoo is found on the main chromosome in neighborhood CIN1; in the same neighborhood, but on the secondary chromosome, we find a 2HP cuckoo. The 3HP cuckoos are found on the main chromosome in neighborhood CIN5, and on the secondary chromosome in neighborhood CIN6.” See Table S1 for complete sequences and detailed results.
