Gene Expression Profile in <i>Neisseria meningitidis</i> and <i>Neisseria lactamica</i> upon Host‐Cell Contact
1 Dec 2002
Abstract excerpt
Differential gene regulation in the human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis group B (MenB) and in Neisseria lactamica, a human commensal species, was studied by whole genome microarray after bacterial interaction with epithelial cells. Host-cell contact induced changes in the expression of 347 and 285 genes in MenB and N. lactamica, respectively. Of these, only 167 were common to MenB and N. lactamica, suggesting...
