  • Title: Strain-specific virulence-associated antigen of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
    Author: Pierce WA, Leong JK, Hough DM.
    Journal: Infect Immun; 1975 May; 11(5):898-903. PubMed ID: 804445.
    Abstract:
    A strain-specific virulence-associated antigen has been found in Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain F-62. Using immunodiffusion in agar gel, it has been shown that the antigen is distinguishable from endotoxin and the virulence-associated toxic protein. It does not appear to be derived from pili. The antigen was not detected in T1 and/or T2 colony type cultures of 10 other isolates. It exhibited a possible partial immunological relationship with an antigen found in one additional strain. It was susceptible to digestion with Pronase and trypsin.
