Diversity in coding tandem repeats in related Neisseria spp.

BMC microbiology - 12 Nov 2003

Jordan Philip, Snyder Lori A S, Saunders Nigel J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tandem repeats contained within coding regions can mediate phase variation when the repeated units change the reading frame of the coding sequence in a copy number dependent manner. Coding tandem repeats are those which do not alter the reading frame with copy number, and the changes in copy number of these repeats may then potentially alter the function or antigenicity of the protein encoded. Three...
