A comparison of the endotoxin biosynthesis and protein oxidation pathways in the biogenesis of the outer membrane of Escherichia coli and Neisseria meningitidis (2012, positive): “…coli, which encodes more than 30 two component systems (Oshima et al., 2002; Yamamoto et al., 2005), N. meningitidis contains only four predicted two component systems which is a feature common to obligate host pathogens from restricted environments (Parkhill et al., 2000; Tettelin et al., 2000).”
What are bacterial species? (2002, background): “More recently the sequencing of multiple genomes within species has shown considerable variation in the genes contained (3, 70, 71, 78, 93).”
Genome sequence of the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum (2002, background): “The only other representative of this group for which the complete genome sequence has been determined and annotated is Neisseria meningitidis”
The complete genome sequence of the lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis IL1403. (2001, background): “For comparison, only 10,235 reactions were needed to assemble L. lactis genome sequence, whereas 40,020 were required for the genome of Neisseria meningitidis (Tettelin et al. 2000), which is of a similar size.”
mreps: efficient and flexible detection of tandem repeats in DNA (2003, background): “meningitidis strain MC58 (serogroup B), of size 2 272 351 bp (27), contains many repetitive elements of a very broad size range (from several bases to kilobases), some of which are involved in antigenic variation and genome fluidity.”
Prophages and bacterial genomics: what have we learned so far? (2003, background): “Neisseria meningitidis cognate prophages Pnm2 in strain Z2491 and NeisMu1 in strain MC58 (Parkhill et al., 2000; Tettelin et al., 2000) are mosaic relatives of the Mu-like group of phages [E. coli phage Mu and three largely intact prophages, FluMu, Sp18 and Pnm1, present in H. influenzae Rd, E.…”
DNA uptake during bacterial transformation (2004, background): “As the genomes of these bacteria are enriched in their respective DU”
