Figure 3

T4-ZZ1 comparison genomic mapping and ZZ1 orthologous genes from the other 4 Acinetobacter phages. The genomes and coding regions of T4 and ZZ1 are drawn in parallel approximately to scale. Alignment of different genes is from T4 (upper line) and from ZZ1 (lower line). Following convention, the map starts at the top left with the rIIA gene and ends at the bottom right with the rIIB gene. Horizontal arrows indicate transcription direction. The likely function of the genes is indicated by the colour of the arrows as described in Figure 1. Genes sharing protein sequence identity are linked according to the colour key provided at the middle left. ZZ1 genes are annotated randomly with their gene order in the GenBank database. The map was artificially split into upper halves and lower halves. ZZ1 genes that are orthologous to the 4 other Acinetobacter phages are indicated by coloured boxes under the corresponding ZZ1 genes. The amino acid sequence identity of ZZ1 genes to these orthologous genes was also indicated by colour as described in the key provided at the upper right. The % coverage of ZZ1 genes to these orthologous genes is indicated by the grey boxes under each coloured shade or box according to the grey scale key at the upper right. The genes indicated by the grey vertical arrows share significant similarity with proteins from the 4 other Acinetobacter phages, but share no significant similarity with T4 proteins.
