Supplemental Info for Comparative evidence for a close relationship between the dimorphic prosthecate bacteria Hyphomonas neptunium and Caulobacter crescentus

Supplementary Documents

• Supplemental Document 1: Details on the Shotgun Sequencing, Assembly and Closure of the genome sequence of the prokaryote Hyphomonas neptunium ATCC 15444

Supplementary Figures

• Supplementary Figure 1: Arrangement of H. neptunium flagellar and chemotaxis genes. Arrows indicate ORFs with the locus numbers indicated above the arrows. Putative flagellar and chemotaxis genes are indicated below the arrows. Note that the ORFs in the top three lines are contiguous. Red arrows indicate ORFs for which the best BLAST match is a homolog from S. pomeroyi DSS-3, while yellow arrows indicate ORFs for which the best BLAST match is from another bacterium. White arrows indicate ORFs that do not have a significant BLAST match.
• Supplementary Figure 2: Distribution of flagellar (red) and chemotaxis (blue) genes in the genomes of H. neptunium, S. pomeroyi, and C. crescentus. Each genome is represented by a linear axis, 500 kb per line. The genes transcribed from left to right are shown above the axis in three layers, which signify the three different reading frames. Genes transcribed from right to left are shown below the axis. The thick bars underneath indicate statistically significant clusters (p<0.01) identified by r-scan statistics (Dembo & Karlin, 1992, Karlin, Mrazek, & Campbell, 1996).
