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]
, 2016 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.

Using an agent-based sexual-network model to analyze the impact of mitigation efforts for controlling chlamydia [PDF]
, 2020 Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) is the most reported sexually transmitted infection in the United States with a major cause of infertility and pelvic inflammatory disease among women. Despite decades of screening women for Ct, rates increase among young African Americans (AA). We create and analyze an agent-based network model to understand the spread of Ct.

Protochlamydia naegleriophila as Etiologic Agent of Pneumonia
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008 Using ameba coculture, we grew a Naegleria endosymbiont. Phenotypic, genetic, and phylogenetic analyses supported its affiliation as Protochlamydia naegleriophila sp. nov. We then developed a specific diagnostic PCR for Protochlamydia spp.
