The genomic arrangement of 20 conserved genes in the family Iridoviridae. Genes are indicated by black outline boxes. The MCP genes were designated as the starting point for all iridovirus genomes and genome names are listed on the right. Horizontal distances are shown proportional to base pair distances and the vertical lines indicate the conserved genes in different iridovirus isolates. The following are the conserved genes according to their order in the STIV genome: major capsid protein (096R); immediate-early protein ICP-46 (097R); FLAP endonuclease (100R); putative replicating factor (001R); DNA-dependent RNA polymerase II largest subunit (010R); D6/D11-like helicase (011L); A32 virion packaging ATPase (016R); unknown protein (021R); unknown (024L); D5 family NTPase (025R); NIF/NLI interacting factor (041R); myristylated membrane protein (055R); phosphotransferase (060R); DNA polymerase (063R); DNA-dependent RNA polymerase subunit II (064L); ribonucleotide reductase small subunit (071R); Ribonuclease III (087L); proliferating cell nuclear antigen, PCNA (091R); thymidine kinase (092R) and thiol oxidoreductase (094R).
