a, The region containing swmA and two other ORFs (a predicted glycosyltransferase and a sulphotransferase) appears to have been inserted in the ribH/tRNA-Gly region, or conversely, deleted in the two Prochlorococcus genomes. b, swmB and several other ORFs have been inserted between the rsuA and malQ regions. The double lines in swmB indicate that it is not drawn to scale, as it is approximately 20 times larger than malQ. The ORFs are colour-coded by predicted function as described in Fig. 2.
