Journal Article
Tunio, S. A., Oldfield, N. J., Ala'Aldeen, D. A. A., Wooldridge, K. G., & Turner, D. P. J. (2010). The role of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GapA-1) in Neisseria meningitidis adherence to human cells. BMC Microbiology, 10, Article 280. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2180-10-280

Background Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenases (GAPDHs) are cytoplasmic glycolytic enzymes, which although lacking identifiable secretion signals, have also been found localized to the surface of several bacteria (and some eukaryotic organisms...
