PCR and Restriction Endonuclease Assay for Detection of a Novel Mutation Associated with Sulfonamide Resistance in Neisseria meningitidis

We identified a previously undocumented mutation in the dihydropteroate synthase (folP) gene associated with Neisseria meningitidis sulfonamide resistance. A PCR-based assay to detect this mutation, which is 100% predictive of sulfonamide resistance, was developed.
