Genetic relationships among serogroup B: serotype 4 Neisseria meningitidis strains.
We compared the results obtained by serotyping of PorB epitopes using an expanded panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) including mAb 7 and mAb 10, with results obtained by RFLP of rRNA genes (ribotyping). The purpose of this study was to assess the correlation between phenotypic- and genotypic- methods for typing N. meningitidis. The ribotypes obtained using ClaI or EcoRV endonucleases grouped ...
متن کاملcomparative proteomics analysis of two strains of neisseria meningitidis serogroup b and neisseria lactamica
conclusions these results show the usefulness of proteome analysis in successful identification of the common proteins between n. lactamica strains and nmb. this proteomics analysis is the starting point in the path of knowledge development about whole proteome profiles of n. lactamica strains. objectives the main aims of this study were to determine whole proteome profiles of n. lactamica stra...
متن کاملComparative Proteomics Analysis of Two Strains of Neisseria meningitidis Serogroup B and Neisseria lactamica
BACKGROUND Antigenic similarities between Neisseria lactamica as a commensal species and N. meningitidis serogroup B (NmB) as an important cause of meningitis infection have been considered for the development of an effective vaccine based on their common proteins to prevent life-threatening bacterial meningitis. OBJECTIVES The main aims of this study were to determine whole proteome profiles...
متن کاملDevelopment of a DNA Aptamer for Screening Neisseria meningitidis Serogroup B by Cell SELEX
Background: Artificial oligonucleotides like DNA or RNA aptamers can be used as biodiagnostic alternatives for antibodies to detect pathogens. Comparing to antibodies, artificial oligonucleotides are produced easily at lower costs and are more stable. Neisseria meningitidis, the causative agent of meningitis, is responsible for about 1% of infections in an epidemic period. Specific DNA aptamers...
متن کاملIn silico Analysis and Modeling of ACP-MIP–PilQ Chimeric Antigen from Neisseria meningitidis Serogroup B
Background: Neisseria meningitidis, a life-threatening human pathogen with the potential to cause large epidemics, can be isolated from the nasopharynx of 5–15% of adults. The aim of the current study was to evaluate biophysical and biochemical properties and immunological aspects of chimeric acyl-carrier protein-macrophage infectivity potentiator protein-type IV pilus biogenesis protein ...
