Figure 2

Dot-blot analysis of tar/tag regions. Homologous relationships are confirmed by dot-blot analyis. Figure 2a shows the synteny and the homologous genes in the W23 tar and 168 tag regions. Figure 2b shows the synteny and the orthologous relationships of genes involved teichoic acid synthesis in B. subtilis W23 and Mu50. In Mu50, the tar genes are not clustered together. We artificially brought them together to make the dot-plot easy to read. Strains MW2, N315, MRSA252, MSSA476 and COL are the same as Mu50 (not shown).
