A pair of genes, each of which produces in Escherichia coli a 20-kDa, periplasmically localized protein that cross-reacts with anti-rpoN monoclonal antibody, was isolated from Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Homologs of the two genes were detected in pathogenic Neisseria species but not in commensal species. These genes are designated cnp1 and cnp2 (cryptic neisserial protein).
从淋病奈瑟菌中分离出一对基因,这两个基因在大肠杆菌中均能产生一种20 kDa、定位于周质的蛋白质,该蛋白质能与抗rpoN单克隆抗体发生交叉反应。在致病性奈瑟菌属物种中检测到了这两个基因的同源物,但在共生菌物种中未检测到。这些基因被命名为cnp1和cnp2(奈瑟菌属隐性蛋白)。
