Prediction of prophages and their host ranges in pathogenic and commensal <i>Neisseria</i> species

2021-12-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The genus Neisseria includes two pathogenic species, N. gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis , and numerous commensal species. Neisseria species frequently exchange DNA with one other, primarily via transformation and homologous recombination, and via multiple types of mobile genetic elements (MGEs). Few Neisseria bacteriophages (phages) have been identified and their impact on bacterial physiol...
