The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

Cytokinesis is blocked in mammalian cells transfected with Chlamydia trachomatis gene CT223 [PDF]
Background The chlamydiae alter many aspects of host cell biology, including the division process, but the molecular biology of these alterations remains poorly characterized. Chlamydial inclusion membrane proteins (Incs) are likely candidates for direct

Chlamydia avium‐associated hepatitis in a fancy pigeon (Columba livia f. domestica)
Abstract A 5‐year‐old, male, fancy pigeon (Columba livia f. domestica, 380 g), found dead without prior clinical signs, was submitted for diagnostic postmortem examination. Histologically, the animal exhibited heterophilic to mononuclear hepatitis consistent with avian chlamydiosis; however, Chlamydia psittaci‐specific real‐time polymerase chain ...

Primary endosymbiosis: have cyanobacteria and Chlamydiae ever been roommates?
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

The Type III Secretion Effector CteG Mediates Host Cell Lytic Exit of Chlamydia trachomatis
Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium causing ocular and urogenital infections in humans that are a significant burden worldwide. The completion of its characteristic infectious cycle relies on the manipulation of several host cell

Crescent and star shapes of members of the Chlamydiales order: impact of fixative methods. [PDF]
Members of the Chlamydiales order all share a biphasic lifecycle alternating between small infectious particles, the elementary bodies (EBs) and larger intracellular forms able to replicate, the reticulate bodies.
