A common neisserial antigen evidenced by immunization of mice with live Neisseria meningitidis.
Mice immunized with live meningococci developed antibodies directed against various antigens of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis, as demonstrated by immunoblotting. An antigen of 70 kilodaltons appeared to be common and stable in all gonococcal strains tested and highly immunogenic in mice infected with N. meningitidis.
