Representation of the nucleotide alignment between the Tn2016-like transposon carrying the blaOXA-204 gene in the OXA-204 carbapenemase positive Pseudomonas guariconensis isolated from a child in Tunisia, 2023 (65411), chromosome region 503292–509730, and the Tn2016 characterized in Klebsiella pneumoniae plasmid p204B (GenBank accession no. JQ809466). Arrows indicate genes and their transcription orientations. DRL, direct repeats left; DRR, direct repeats right; Hp, hypothetical protein; IRL, inverted repeat left; IRR, inverted repeat right.
