Genetics of serum resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae: the sac-1 genetic locus

J G Cannon et al. Infect Immun. 1981 May.

Abstract

A genetic locus affecting susceptibility to the bactericidal activity of normal human serum has been designated sac-1. This locus was shown to be closely linked to, but not identical with, a second locus (designated nmp-2) that affects protein 1 of the outer membrane. The sac-1 locus could be linked to known antibiotic resistance markers on the gonococcal chromosome by genetic transformation.
