Sequence variation in the porA gene of a clone of Neisseria meningitidis during epidemic spread.

Clinical and diagnostic laboratory immunology - 1 May 2000

Jelfs J, Munro R, Wedege E, Caugant D A

Abstract excerpt

The ET-15 clone within the electrophoretic type (ET)-37 complex of Neisseria meningitidis was first detected in Canada in 1986 and has since been associated with outbreaks of meningococcal disease in many parts of the world. While the majority of the strains of the ET-37 complex are serosubtype P1.5,2, serosubtype determination of ET-15 strains may often be incomplete, with either only one or none of the two...
