Comparative genomics of Neisseria meningitidis: core genome, islands of horizontal transfer and pathogen-specific genes

1 Dec 2006

Abstract excerpt

To better understand Neisseria meningitidis genomes and virulence, microarray comparative genome hybridization (mCGH) data were collected from one Neisseria cinerea, two Neisseria lactamica, two Neisseria gonorrhoeae and 48 Neisseria meningitidis isolates. For N. meningitidis, these isolates are from diverse clonal complexes, invasive and carriage strains, and all major serogroups. The microarray platform...
