Primary endosymbiosis: have cyanobacteria and Chlamydiae ever been roommates?
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Eukaryotes acquired the ability to process photosynthesis by engulfing a cyanobacterium and transforming it into a genuine organelle called the plastid. This event, named primary endosymbiosis, occurred once more than a billion years ago, and allowed the

An in silico analysis of rpoB mutations to affect Chlamydia trachomatis sensitivity to rifamycin
Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Background Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular gram-negative pathogen, responsible for diverse affections, mainly trachoma and sexually transmitted diseases. Antibiotics are the commonly used drugs to tackle chlamydiae infections. However,

Presence and diversity of Chlamydiae bacteria in Spinturnix myoti, an ectoparasite of bats
Parasite, 2020 Chlamydia spp. and Chlamydia-like organisms are able to infect vertebrates such as mammals, reptiles and birds, but also arthropods and protozoans. Since they have been detected in bats and bat feces, we expected Chlamydiae bacteria to also be present in

Systematic identification of gene families for use as markers for phylogenetic and phylogeny- driven ecological studies of bacteria and archaea and their major subgroups [PDF]
, 2013 With the astonishing rate that the genomic and metagenomic sequence data sets are accumulating, there are many reasons to constrain the data analyses.

Chlamydial infection from outside to inside [PDF]
, 2019 Chlamydia are obligate intracellular bacteria, characterized by a unique biphasic developmental cycle. Specific interactions with the host cell are crucial for the bacteria's survival and amplification because of the reduced chlamydial genome.

Pathogen-host reorganization during Chlamydia invasion revealed by cryo-electron tomography [PDF]
, 2014 Invasion of host cells is a key early event during bacterial infection, but the underlying pathogen-host interactions are yet to be fully visualised in three-dimensional detail.

Interaction of different Chlamydiae species with bovine spermatozoa
BMC Microbiology, 2019 Background Interaction of spermatozoa and Chlamydiae spp. might contribute to reduced fertility in cattle. To proof this hypothesis, bovine semen was incubated with viable or heat inactivated Chlamydia (C.) abortus or psittaci (Multiplicity of infection =
