Whole-genome comparison of S. Typhimurium LT2, D23580, and DT104 NCTC13348. ACT comparison (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/ACT/) of amino acid matches between the complete six-frame translations (computed using BLASTN) of the whole genome sequences of S. Typhimurium LT2 (LT2), D23580, and DT104 NCTC13348. The red bars between the DNA lines represent individual TBLASTX matches, with inverted matches colored blue. Large chromosomal features are indicated with a horizontal line labeled with the feature identity. These analyses indicate the overall colinearity and synteny of the chromosome of sequenced S. Typhimurium isolates. Large insertions or deletions (mainly prophage elements) are labeled. Smaller indels described in the text are not visible at this resolution.
