Novel lipoprotein expressed by Neisseria meningitidis but not by Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1995 The ppk gene, which codes for the enzyme polyphosphate kinase in Neisseria meningitidis strain BNCV, is preceded by an open reading frame coding for a protein with a predicted size of 19.2 kDa with a typical lipoprotein signal sequence of 21 amino acids.

The comparative population genetics ofNeisseria meningitidisandNeisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Neisseria meningitidis and N. gonorrhoeaeare closely related pathogenic bacteria. To compare their population genetics, we compiled a dataset of 1,145 genes found across 20N. meningitidisand 15N. gonorrhoeaegenomes. We find thatN. meningitidisis seven-times more diverse thanN. gonorrhoeaein their combined core genome.

PLoS Pathogens, 2022 The mechanisms used by human adapted commensal Neisseria to shape and maintain a niche in their host are poorly defined. These organisms are common members of the mucosal microbiota and share many putative host interaction factors with Neisseria ...

Lipopolysaccharide banding patterns of Neisseria meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1984 The lipopolysaccharides of Neisseria meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae were examined by electrophoresis after whole-cell lysis and proteinase K digestion. The banding patterns observed from clinical isolates and laboratory strains demonstrated lipopolysaccharide which included a small number of smooth high-molecular-weight molecules as well as the

Genome sequencing reveals widespread virulence gene exchange among human Neisseria species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Commensal bacteria comprise a large part of the microbial world, playing important roles in human development, health and disease. However, little is known about the genomic content of commensals or how related they are to their pathogenic counterparts ...

Sexually Transmitted Infections, 1977 A case of disseminated gonococcal infection in which the gonococcus was isolated from the blood and genitalia and the meningococcus from the throat is described. A second patient, in whom the meningococcus was isolated from the throat and the gonococcus from the genitals but in whom no organisms were recovered from the blood, had lesions resembling ...

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2005 Three group B Neisseria meningitidis isolates, recovered from meningococcal disease cases in Canada and typed as B:2c:P1.5, were characterized. Multilocus sequence typing showed that all three isolates were related because of an identical sequence ...
