Structural organisation of ICEHo elements. Protein sequences of annotated MICE genes were obtained from NCBI for M. fermentans PG18 ICEF-II (MBIO_0551–0567 and MBIO_0555–5 (inserted by hand; nt 616,241 to 616,429 of AP009608.1)), M. hominis strains FBG ICEHo-I (BHBFJME_00460–00482), SP10291 ICEHo-I (HPAMDCMO_00562–00540) and ICEHo-II (HPAMDCMO_00016–00030), SP3615 ICEHo-II (KGPEAHF_00500–00483), TO0613 ICEHo-I (KN71_RS02000–01900), PL5 ICEHo-I (V136_RS01075/_03225–03305/VE10_RS00015), 4788_ICEHo-I (EVJ69_RS02290–02175), M. anseris ICEHo-I/II (DP065_01405–01485) and M. phocicerebrale ICEHo-II (DMC14_02545–02600) and analysed by multiple protein sequence alignments. Sequence identities of homologous proteins, estimated by ClustalW, are shown above the encoding ORFs in relation to FBG ICEHo-I, and below in relation to SP3615 ICEHo-II. Percent amino acid identities of MhoJ1 and MhoJ2 of ICEHo-I were calculated with respect to MhoJ1 of SP10291 ICEHo-I and MhoJ2 of TO0613 and respectively marked by lines. Incomplete recovery of CDS3, CDS5 and CDS19 of strain PL5, which did not enable calculation of homologies, is indicated by transparent framing
