PacBio Amplicon Sequencing Method To Measure Pilin Antigenic Variation Frequencies of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Neisseria gonorrhoeae</named-content>
ABSTRACT Gene diversification is a common mechanism pathogens use to alter surface structures to aid in immune avoidance. Neisseria gonorrhoeae uses a gene conversion-based diversification system to alter the primary sequence of the gene encoding the major subunit of the pilus, pilE. Antigenic varia...
