Description: Gram-negative meningococcal bacterium. Causes life-threatening invasive bacterial infections especially in young infants. Opportunistic pathogen that colonizes the nasopharynges and oropharynges of asymptomatic carriers, they occasionally gain access to the blood and to the cerebrospinal fluid to cause meningitis and septicemia.

The pattern of serogroup B disease is typically hyperendemic or sporadic. Strains of this serogroup are a particular problem because they are a major cause of invasive disease in Europe and United States and there is currently no effective vaccine.

Properties: Number of membranes : 2
Presence of a flagella : No
Number of inteins : 0
