Abstract excerpt

Capsule expression in Neisseria meningitidis is encoded by the cps locus comprised of genes required for biosynthesis and surface translocation. Located adjacent to the gene encoding the polysialyltransferase in serogroups expressing sialic acid-containing capsule, NMB0065 is likely a member of the cps locus, but it is not found in serogroups A or X that express non-sialic acid capsules. To further understand its...
