MAFFT-based alignments of aberrant BrickBuilt elements and areas across P. gingivalis strains. The top panel depicts the CDS-to-CDS region of BrickBuilt_4, using the surrounding CDS that would correctly correspond to the ATCC 33277 genome. Strain W83 has no BrickBuilt_4 and strain TDC60 has a BrickBuilt_4 that has moved or been moved to a different locus. The middle panel depicts BrickBuilt_18, in which strains ATCC 33277 and HG66 have a 236-type MITE within the BrickBuilt element. The bottom panel depicts the CDS-to-CDs region BrickBuilt_11 from strain ATCC 33277, in which strain W83 has acquired a gene immediately upstream of the BrickBuilt element. Light grey boxing indicates completely identical sequence regions. Black lines or boxing indicates areas of aberrance (e.g. SNPs or additional IS-like element)
