A virulence-associated filamentous bacteriophage of Neisseria meningitidis increases host-cell colonisation

PLoS Pathogens, 2017
Neisseria meningitidis is a commensal of human nasopharynx. In some circumstances, this bacteria can invade the bloodstream and, after crossing the blood brain barrier, the meninges.
