1975 Science 12 Dec. 1103/2 This appears to be the first identification of extracellular enzymes from the pathogenic Neisseria, and their specificity for human IgA suggests that they may play a role in neisserial infection.
1989 Infection & Immunity 57 602 Among four other commensal neisserial species, only Neisseria cinerea shared LOS [= lipooligosaccharide] epitopes defined by MAbs O6B4 and 3F11.
