Variation and molecular evolution of HmbR, the Neisseria meningitidis haemoglobin receptor
Meningococcal disease caused by serogroup B Neisseria meningitidis remains an important health problem in many parts of the world, and there are currently no comprehensive vaccines. Poor immunogenicity, combined with immunological identity to human sialic acids, have hindered the development of a se...
