Opacity Proteins Increase Neisseria gonorrhoeae Fitness in the Female Genital Tract Due to a Factor under Ovarian Control

The neisserial opacity (Opa) proteins are a family of antigenically distinct outer membrane proteins that undergo phase-variable expression. Opa(+) variants of Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain FA1090 are selected in a cyclical pattern from the lower genital tract of estradiol-treated mice. Here we show...
