Plasmid DNA was prepared with the TempliPhi DNA sequencing template amplification kit (GE Healthcare-Bio-Sciences). Cosmid DNA was purified with the Montage BAC Miniprep96 Kit (Millipore). Sequencing reactions were performed from both ends of DNA templates using ABI PRISM BigDye Terminator cycle sequencing ready reactions kits and were run on a 3700 or a 3730 xl Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems).
