Activation of class 1 integron integrase is promoted in the intestinal environment. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2022 Class 1 integrons are widespread genetic elements playing a major role in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance. They allow bacteria to capture, express and exchange antibiotic resistance genes embedded within gene cassettes.

High prevalence of class 1 integron, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Escherichia coli isolated from cattle, water, and soil in Bangladesh [PDF]
BMC MicrobiologyBackground Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global threat. Escherichia coli is an important reservoir of resistance genes, and the coexistence of mcr with class 1 integron (intI1) is alarming, mcr confers resistance to colistin, a last-resort ...
