Genomic analysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains from disseminated, urogenital, and rectal infections reveals differences in genes for iron acquisition and type IV secretion

ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae, an obligate human pathogen, causes the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea. Delayed treatment or immunodeficiencies can result in a higher risk of disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI), where the infection spreads to normally sterile anatomic sites, including the bloodstream. The...
