Opa protein repertoires of disease-causing and carried meningococci
The meningococcal Opa proteins play an important role in pathogenesis by mediating invasion of human cells. The aim of this investigation was to determine whether carried and disease-associated meningococci possess different Opa repertoires in 227 disease-associated meningococci, isolated in the Uni...
