Abstract
Most cases of serogroup C meningococcal disease are caused by the clonal lineages ST-8 and ST-11. The gene encoding the putative restriction-modification system NmeDI is specific to these lineages. We report here a monoclonal antibody directed against the NmeDI endonuclease as a tool for their rapid and spe-cific identification.
