Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia diagnosed by metagenomics next-generation sequencing: a case report [PDF]
Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia is a relatively rare zoonotic disease. However, lack of specific clinical symptoms, effective and rapid laboratory diagnosis methods and clear epidemiological data sometimes may make it difficult to diagnose the disease. This

Purine metabolism by intracellular Chlamydia psittaci [PDF]
Purine metabolism was studied in the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia psittaci AA Mp in the wild type and a variety of mutant host cell lines with well-defined deficiencies in purine metabolism. C. psittaci AA Mp cannot synthesize purines de novo, as assessed by its inability to incorporate exogenous glycine into nucleic acid purines.

Pyrimidine metabolism by intracellular Chlamydia psittaci [PDF]
Pyrimidine metabolism was studied in the obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia psittaci AA Mp in the wild type and a variety of mutant host cell lines with well-defined mutations affecting pyrimidine metabolism. C. psittaci AA Mp cannot synthesize pyrimidines de novo, as assessed by its inability to incorporate aspartic acid into nucleic acid ...

Analysis of Polymorphic Membrane Protein Expression in Cultured Cells Identifies PmpA and PmpH of Chlamydia psittaci as Candidate Factors in Pathogenesis and Immunity to Infection. [PDF]
The polymorphic membrane protein (Pmp) paralogous families of Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia pneumoniae and Chlamydia abortus are putative targets for Chlamydia vaccine development. To determine whether this is also the case for Pmp family members of C.

Chlamydia psittaci in birds of prey, Sweden [PDF]
Chlamydia psittaci is an intracellular bacterium primarily causing respiratory diseases in birds but may also be transmitted to other animals, including humans. The prevalence of the pathogen in wild birds in Sweden is largely unknown.DNA was extracted from cloacae swabs and screened for C. psittaci by using a 23S rRNA gene PCR assay.

Development of a Plasmid Shuttle Vector System for Genetic Manipulation of Chlamydia psittaci
The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia psittaci is a known avian pathogen causing psittacosis in birds and is capable of zoonotic transmission. In human pulmonary infections, C.

Occurrence of Chlamydiae in Corvids in Northeast Italy
Chlamydiaceae occurrence has been largely evaluated in wildlife, showing that wild birds are efficient reservoirs for avian chlamydiosis. In this study, DNA extracted from cloacal swabs of 108 corvids from Northeast Italy was screened for Chlamydiaceae ...
