Genome-wide detection of conservative site-specific recombination in bacteria
Fig 2
C. difficile R20291 genome harbors seven inversion sites.
(A) Seven distinct clusters (black circles) composed of unidirectional read pairs are detected in C. difficile R20291 genome. Each cluster is numbered following a previously described convention. (B-H) Illustration of unidirectional reads enrichment relative to the genomic on-scale context. The y axis represents read number and the x axis represent genomic position. Associated open reading frames are shown with arrowed boxes and labeled by the numeric value from their respective locus_tag number. The position of the invertible segment is illustrated by the dark green box relative to the gene content. The enrichment of 5-prime end clipped reads is shown in the separate plot at the top right corner. The two major dark green bands correspond to left and right boundary of the invertible site.
