Abstract excerpt

Neisseria meningitidis strains belonging to the hypervirulent lineage ET-37 and several unrelated strains are extremely UV sensitive. The phenotype is consequent to the presence of a nonfunctional recB(ET-37) allele carrying multiple missense mutations. Phenotypic analysis has been performed with congenic meningococcal strains harboring either the wild-type recB allele or the recB(ET-37) allele. Congenic...
