Circular exhibition of the <i>Rickettsia japonica</i> YH genome.

<p>The outermost scale is marked for nucleic acid position in Mbp, and Region-1 and -2 (red). From the outside (track 1), gene positions and directions (clockwise on the outside and anti-clockwise on the inside) of each gene were classified and colored based on COGs <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0071861#pone.0071861-Tatusov2" target="_blank">[45]</a>. Track 2 and 3: tRNA (red) and rRNA (blue), respectively. Track 4: GC skew, outside yellow and inside purple indicate values >0 and values <0 as calculated by (G−C/G+C) <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0071861#pone.0071861-Grigoriev1" target="_blank">[46]</a>. Track 5: innermost, GC contents. Based on the cumulus of the GC skew values, accompanied by other <i>Richettsia</i> genomes, a hypothetical origin, shown as <i>ori</i>, was determined and the base numbers were counted from the origin.
