A Double-Strand Break Does Not Promote Neisseria gonorrhoeae Pilin Antigenic Variation

The major subunit of the type IV pilus (T4p) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae undergoes antigenic variation (AV) dependent on a guanine quadruplex (G4) DNA structure located upstream of the pilin gene. Since the presence of G4 DNA induces genome instability in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic chromosomes, we...
