TL;DR: Neisseria meningitidis contains more genes that undergo phase variation than any pathogen studied to date, a mechanism that controls their expression and contributes to the evasion of the host immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Fur repressor controls transcription of iron-activated and -repressed genes in Helicobacter pylori
TL;DR: It is shown that, in Helicobacter pylori, Fur can mediate the regulation of iron‐activated genes in contrast to classical Fur regulation, in which iron acts as a co‐repressor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fur functions as an activator and as a repressor of putative virulence genes in Neisseria meningitidis.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Fur acts not only as a repressor, but also as an activator of gene expression both in vivo and in vitro.

TL;DR: This article provided proteins from Neisseria meningitidis, including the amino acid sequences and corresponding nucleotide sequences, which are predicted to be useful antigens for vaccines and/or diagnostics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motility of Helicobacter pylori is coordinately regulated by the transcriptional activator FlgR, an NtrC homolog.

TL;DR: The data indicate that regulation of flagellar gene expression in H. pylori shows similarities with that in enterobacteriaceae and Caulobacter.
