Genetic characterization of pilin glycosylation in Neisseria meningitidis The GenBank accession number for the sequence determined in this work is AF014804.

1 Apr 2000

Abstract excerpt

Pili of Neisseria meningitidis are a key virulence factor, being the major adhesin of this capsulate organism and contributing to specificity for the human host. Pili are post-translationally modified by addition of an O-linked trisaccharide, Gal(beta1-4)Gal(alpha1-3)2,4-diacetimido-2,4,6-trideoxyhexose++ +. In a previous study the authors identified and characterized a gene, pglA, encoding a...
