Synteny analysis of pks island genes from the NORM collection

Files used in examining synteny between pks island genes in hybrid assemblies from the NORM collection. Data Isolation, sequencing, and assembly are described in the following two studies: [1] Gladstone et al. "Emergence and dissemination of antimicrobial resistance in Escherichia coli causing bloodstream infections in Norway in 2002–17: a nationwide, longitudinal, microbial population genomic study". The Lancet Microbe (2021). doi: 10.1016/S2666-5247(21)00031-8. [2] Arredondo-Alonso et al. "Plasmid-driven strategies for clone success in Escherichia coli". Nature communications (2025). doi: 10.1038/s41467-025-57940-1. Sequencing data is available from the European Nucleotide Archive under accession numbers PRJEB45354 and PRJEB57633. Analysis Synteny analysis was performed using clinker [3] [3] Gilchrist, C. L. M. & Chooi, Y.-H. "clinker & clustermap.js: automatic generation of gene cluster comparison figures." Bioinformatics (2021). doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btab007.
