The function of integron-associated genes cassettes in Vibrio species: the tip of the iceberg [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 The integron is a genetic element that incorporates mobile genes termed gene cassettes into a reserved genetic site via site-specific recombination. It is best known for its role in antibiotic resistance with one type of integron, the class 1 integron, a

A novel complex class 1 integron found in a Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate from Portugal
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2011 Klebsiella pneumoniae Kp1 carrying a novel complex class 1 integron was isolated from an inanimate surface of a female ward sanitary facility in the Hospital Infante D. Pedro, Aveiro, central Portugal. The integron consists of two variable regions (VRs);

Evolution of class 1 integrons: Mobilization and dispersal via food-borne bacteria. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Class 1 integrons have played a major role in the global dissemination of antibiotic resistance. Reconstructing the history of class 1 integrons might help us control further spread of antibiotic resistance by understanding how human activities influence
