Invasive Meningococcal Disease in a Patient With Complement 7 Deficiency
ABSTRACT Neisseria meningitidis can cause invasive meningococcal disease (IMD). Individuals with primary complement deficiencies are at a higher risk of developing IMD. However, cases of IMD associated with complement deficiency have rarely been reported in Japan.

Outbreak of Sexually Transmitted Nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis–Associated Urethritis, Vietnam
We report on an outbreak of nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis–associated urethritis, primarily among men who have sex with men in southern Vietnam. Nearly 50% of N. meningitidis isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin.

Genomics of Neisseria meningitidis
An important feature of disease caused by Neisseria meningitidis is the propensity to invade the meninges. Much progress has been made in our understanding of how this pathogen circumvents the physical properties of this cellular barrier. This review will address the new possibilities offered by the recent availability of meningococcal genome sequences.

Mapping protein–protein interactions by mass spectrometry
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for numerous biological activities, including signal transduction, transcription control, and metabolism. They play a pivotal role in the organization and function of the proteome, and their perturbation is associated with various diseases, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and infectious ...

Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.

We describe the CD9 interactome in epithelial cells for the first time. The interactome is diverse and dynamic and changes dependent on infection with specific bacteria. We validate these data by showing functional interaction between CD9 with CD44 or CD147. We therefore demonstrate that CD9 is a universal organiser of bacterial adhesion platforms able
