Interspecies recombination in nature: a meningococcus that has acquired a gonococcal PIB porin.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Mar 1995

Abstract excerpt

A vaginal isolate of Neisseria has been reported to resemble Neisseria meningitidis in biochemical characteristics but to react with serological reagents that are specific to the PI porin from Neisseria gonorrhoeae. We have confirmed that this isolate has the biochemical attributes of a meningococcus and have shown that it clusters among meningococcal isolates on a dendrogram based on isoenzyme variation within...
