From: A comprehensive analysis of Helicobacter pylori plasticity zones reveals that they are integrating conjugative elements with intermediate integration specificity

Figure 4

Integration sites of all ICE Hptfs3 and ICE Hptfs4 islands mapped onto the genome of strain P12. Positions of these elements as well as of plasticity zone 2 (PZ2) in the genome of P12 are shown within the circle. Each arrow indicates an individual ICEHptfs3 and/or ICEHptfs4 integration site. Note that the integration sites shown for strains where one island is integrated into another are not indicative of their genomic location in comparison to the main genome (for example, ICEHptfs3 of strain PeCan18 is inserted into a ICEHptfs4a fragment and therefore shown at 456 kb, but the ICEHptfs4a fragment is in fact integrated in the PZ2 region at 1059 kb in this strain).
