Figure 1

Diagram of overall structure of Mycoplasma haemofelis genome. The dnaA gene is at position zero. The distribution of genes is depicted on two outermost concentric circles: First concentric circle: predicted coding regions on the plus strand. Second concentric circle: predicted coding regions on the minus strand. Predicted coding regions are classified by functional categories (TIGR roles) according to the color code. Moving inwards, the third circle displays the genes that are within paralogous gene families, where same color means CDSs from the same family, except for light green representing all the families with 5 or less members. The fourth circle represents the tandem repeats (red), the 17 predicted lipoproteins (orange), rRNAs (black) and tRNAs (blue). The innermost circle represents the GC skew. The figure was generated using DNAPlotter version 1.4 from Artemis 12.0, Sanger Institute.
