A novel paralogous gene family involved in phase-variable flagella-mediated motility in Campylobacter jejuni.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Feb 2002

Abstract excerpt

Flagella-mediated motility is recognized to be one of the major factors contributing to virulence in Campylobacter jejuni. Motility of this bacterium is known to be phase variable, although the mechanism of such variation remains unknown. C. jejuni genome sequencing revealed a number of genes prone to phase variation via a slipped-strand mispairing mechanism. Many of these genes are hypothetical and are clustered...
