Antigenic Variation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae Occurs Independently of RecQ-Mediated Unwinding of the pilE G Quadruplex

The obligate human pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae alters its cell surface antigens to evade the immune system in a process known as antigenic variation (AV). During pilin AV, portions of the expressed pilin gene (pilE) are replaced with segments of silent pilin genes (pilS) through homologous recomb...
