Modularity and variability of life-style gene cassettes. Life-style region corresponding to genes lp_3114-lp_3150 (from 2.78-2.82 Mb on the chromosome) in strain WCFS1, represented as gene cassettes. Each cassette contains 3-18 genes (see example in Figure 2A); identical colors indicate corresponding cassettes in other strains. Putative functions of proteins encoded in the cassettes are indicated.
