Discovery of a New Neisseria gonorrhoeae Type IV Pilus Assembly Factor, TfpC
Neisseria gonorrhoeae relies on type IV pili (T4p) to promote colonization of their human host and to cause the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea. This organelle cycles through a process of extension and retraction back into the bacterial cell. Through a genetic screen, we identified the NGO0...
