Structure of the genomic island SaPISaitama2 and comparison with genomic islands SaPIm4, SaPIm1 and SaPIj50. SaPISaitama2 was constructed with regions from SaPIm4 (ʋSa3) and SaPIm1 (ʋSa4) and could be grouped as ʋSa3, as with the integrase (int) of SaPIm4. SaPIj50 is also a mosaic of SaPIm4 and SaPIm1 but seems to have different motifs between the parts of SaPIm4 and SaPIm1. Coding sequences with > 80% identify with SaPISaitama2 are colored
