HAMAP: Neisseria gonorrhoeae (strain NCCP11945) complete proteome
General information

Species:  Neisseria gonorrhoeae (strain NCCP11945)
Species code: NEIG2
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Betaproteobacteria; Neisseriales; Neisseriaceae; Neisseria (TaxID: 521006) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Neisseria gonorrhoeae is one of two pathogenic Neisseria, this species causes the sexually transmitted disease (STD) gonorrhea, which is the leading reportable STD in adults in the USA. This human-specific organism colonizes and invades the mucosal surface of the urogenital epithelium, crosses the epithelial barrier, and ends up multiplying on the basement membrane. The result is severe painful inflammation and purulent discharge. Neisseria gonorrhoeae (strain NCCP11945) was isolated in 2002 from a vaginal smear of a Korean patient. This is a multidrug-resistant strain and will be used to understand the prevalence, antibiotic resistance, and importance of horizontal gene transfer within this important, naturally competent organism.
