Schematic representation of the MAT loci of S. pombe, P. jirovecii, P Schematic representation of the MAT loci of S. pombe, P. jirovecii, P. carinii, and T. deformans. Schematic representation of the MAT loci of S. pombe, P. jirovecii, P. carinii, and T. deformans. Genes are shown in green, and their synteny with those of the other species is shown by the yellow rectangles. The sequence contigs carrying the genes are shown as gray lines. The centromere-homologous sequence (cenH) is shown in blue. The cis-acting sequence motifs H1, H2, and H3 involved in mating type switching in S. pombe are shown in light brown. The gene name or detected domain name is indicated for each identified open reading frame. João M. G. C. F. Almeida et al. mBio 2015; doi:10.1128/mBio.02250-14
