a, according to Horn et al. [14];

b, positive strand (cooriented as the majority of the genes of the GI); gly-tRNAs are separated by 88 nt;

c, identified by BLAST [35; 36] and CLUSTALW [39] by ourselves;

d, phage-related protein based on additional BLAST hit;

e, partially annotated by Horn et al. [14] and further characterized by ourselves by BLAST [35, 36].
