Identification and characterization of a novel porin family highlights a major difference in the outer membrane of chlamydial symbionts and pathogens. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The Chlamydiae constitute an evolutionary well separated group of intracellular bacteria comprising important pathogens of humans as well as symbionts of protozoa.

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 1092-1103, May 2026.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 ...

Chlamydia avium‐associated hepatitis in a fancy pigeon (Columba livia f. domestica)
Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.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 ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Bacteria from the Planctomycetes, Verrucomicrobia and Chlamydiae (PVC) superphylum are exceptions to the otherwise dominant mode of division by binary fission, which is based on the interaction between the FtsZ protein and the peptidoglycan (PG ...

New South Wales Public Health Bulletin, 2002 Chlamydia is a sexually transmissible infection that can affect both men and women. It is caused by bacterium. Many people who are infected with the bacterium do not have symptoms of infection but can still transmit the bacterium. Chlamydia can affect the urethra (the urine passage), cervix (the neck of the womb), rectum and anus, throat, and eyes ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.This research clarifies the synergistic adaptive interactions between seasonal foraging strategies and gut microbiome composition in Chinese chiropterans. Microbial diversity and community structure exhibit seasonal fluctuations, with functional metabolic pathways aligning to host reproductive cycles and hibernation physiology, thereby substantiating ...

Diversity of FAAL enzymes and prediction of their substrate specificity using FAALPred
Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract FAALs (fatty acyl‐AMP ligases) recruit and incorporate fatty acids during the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Their diversity, distribution, and substrate specificity remain poorly understood, which limits functional predictions from sequence data.

Chlamydial Lytic Exit from Host Cells Is Plasmid Regulated
mBio, 2015 Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that is a globally important human pathogen. The chlamydial plasmid is an attenuating virulence factor, but the molecular basis for attenuation is not understood.

Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 295-315, March 2026.ABSTRACT Background People with intellectual disabilities (ID) are known to have a higher risk for a wide range of health conditions compared to the general population. However, there is little research comparing a more comprehensive range of diseases and conditions at different ages.
