  1. *Gmet_3056 is frameshifted near the N-terminus, but may be expressed from an internal start codon.
  2. The functions and associations of the various IHF alpha (ihfA), IHF beta (ihfB), and HU (hup) genes are yet unknown, as is their correspondence to any of the predicted regulatory sites illustrated in Figures S3, S4, S5, and S6.
