The transposon-like correia elements encode numerous strong promoters and provide a potential new mechanism for phase variation in the meningococcus

Neisseria meningitidis is the primary causative agent of bacterial meningitis. The genome is rich in repetitive DNA and almost 2% is occupied by a diminutive transposon called the Correia element. Here we report a bioinformatic analysis defining eight subtypes of the element with four distinct types...
