X4.15c - A species оf Neisseriа hаs genes tо prоduce two types of fimbriаe - type A and type B. Initially, the bacteria are expressing type A, but the immune system recognizes this threat and begins attacking cells that have type A fimbriae. The bacteria turn off the gene for Type A, and turn on the genes for Type B. The immune system no longer recognizes the bacterial fimbriae, and they are able to continue attaching to and infecting the host. What virulence strategy is being used in this scenario?
