Implications of Phase Variation of a Gene (pgtA) Encoding a Pilin Galactosyl Transferase in Gonococcal Pathogenesis

The pilin glycoprotein (PilE) is the main building block of the pilus of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (gonococcus [GC]). GC pilin is known to carry a disaccharide O-glycan, which has an αGal attached to the O-linked GlcNAc by a 1–3 glycosidic bond. In this report, we describe the cloning and characterizati...
