Genome Sequence of Neisseria meningitidis Serogroup B Strain H44/76 [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2011 ABSTRACT Neisseria meningitidis is an obligate human pathogen. While it is a frequent commensal of the upper respiratory tract, in some individuals the bacterium spreads to the bloodstream, causing meningitis and/or sepsis, which are serious conditions with high morbidity and mortality. Here we report the availability

A vaccine against serogroup B Neisseria meningitidis: dealing with uncertainty
The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2014 Neisseria meningitidis is an important cause of invasive bacterial infection in children worldwide. Although serogroup C meningococcal disease has all but disappeared in the past decade as a direct result of immunisation programmes in Europe, Canada, and Australia, meningitis and septicaemia caused by serogroup B meningococci remain uncontrolled.
