A homologue of the recombination-dependent growth gene, rdgC, is involved in gonococcal pilin antigenic variation.

Neisseria gonorrhoeae pilin undergoes high-frequency changes in primary amino acid sequence that aid in the avoidance of the host immune response and alter pilus expression. The pilin amino acid changes reflect nucleotide changes in the expressed gene, pilE, which result from nonreciprocal recombina...
