Meningococcal Internalization into Human Endothelial and Epithelial Cells Is Triggered by the Influx of Extracellular l-Glutamate via GltT l-Glutamate ABC Transporter in Neisseria meningitidis

Meningococcal internalization into human cells is likely to be a consequence of meningococcal adhesion to human epithelial and endothelial cells. Here, we identified three transposon mutants of Neisseria meningitidis that were primarily defective in the internalization of human brain microvascular e...
