Linear comparison of blaIMP-1-carrying plasmid sequences from Enterobacter cloacae complex strains was performed with BLAST and visualized with Easyfig (http://mjsull.github.io/Easyfig/). Red, yellow, green, and blue arrows indicate the blaIMP-1 gene, other antimicrobial resistant genes (ARG), type IV secretion system (T4SS)-associated genes for conjugation, and mobile gene elements (MGE) detected from CDS annotations, respectively. Structural features of a class 1 integron containing blaIMP-1 are shown, and the structures are almost identical in six plasmids, except for pNUH14_ECL028_1
