Figure 2

Genetic relationship and environment of blaOXA-244 genes identified in Escherichia coli isolates collected during 2016–2019, France. A) Schematic representation of the close genetic context of blaOXA-244 genes (A–H) identified in E. coli. Arrows indicate direction of the genes. Yellow indicates chromosomal genes; purple indicates mobile elements; red indicates β-lactamase genes; green indicates toxin–antitoxin genes; blue indicates genes with known function; and gray indicates hypothetical proteins. B) The relationship between the close genetic environment of blaOXA-244 gene and the year of isolation. OXA, oxacillin.
