Genomotyping results of N. gonorrhoeae strain FA1090 versus N. gonorrhoeae strain MS11.

Gene probes hybridizing to FA1090 but not MS11

Genes known to be associated with divergence:
Lack of hybridization may be due to:
XNG0049 (pilC1)
divergence in MS11 pilC sequence (Z50180)
XNG0210 (hypothetical)
maf-associated divergence
XNG0211 (hypothetical)
maf-associated divergence
XNG0212 (hypothetical)
maf-associated divergence
XNG0213 (hypothetical)
maf-associated divergence
XNG1280 (hypothetical)
maf-associated divergence
XNG0442 (hypothetical)
prophage region-associated divergence
XNG1509 (hypothetical)

Gene probes hybridizing to MS11 but not FA1090

Genes known to be associated with divergence
Hybridization to non-FA1090 probes may be due to:
NMA1797 (tspB)
divergence in MS11 tspB sequence
NMB1119 (hypothetical)
prophage region-associated divergence
NMB1120 (hypothetical)
prophage region-associated divergence
GCJDS60 (suppressor)
prophage region-associated divergence
GCJDS61 (regulator)
prophage region-associated divergence
Genes associated with strain-specific regions:
Associated strain-specific region:
59 Gonococcal Genetic Island genes
