Sequence-Based Predictions of Lipooligosaccharide Diversity in the Neisseriaceae and Their Implication in Pathogenicity
Endotoxin [Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/Lipooligosaccharide (LOS)] is an important virulence determinant in gram negative bacteria. While the genetic basis of endotoxin production and its role in disease in the pathogenic Neisseria has been extensively studied, little research has focused on the genetic...
