Gene context of Neisseria

  • Distinct mechanisms of internalization of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by members of the CEACAM receptor family involving Rac1- and Cdc42-dependent and -independent pathways [24].
  • Rather, they support a model in which pilus interaction with CD46 promotes signaling cascades important for Neisseria infectivity [25].
  • Activation of complement by mannose-binding lectin on isogenic mutants of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B [26].
  • Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases in carcinoembryonic antigen-related cellular adhesion molecule-mediated internalization of Neisseria gonorrhoeae [27].
  • In this study, we investigate the interaction of PorB from Neisseria meningitidis with TLR2 and describe the direct binding of a bacterial protein to TLR2 for the first time [28].
