Coxiella burnetii is a worldwide spread, intracellular and highly infectious, Gram-negative bacterium. The main hosts are the domestic animals, especially cattle, goats and sheep. It is also found in other domestic mammals, birds and ticks. C. burnetii is excreted with lice, urine, feces and the milk of the infected animals.

Recent proteomic studies of C. burnetii, the etiological agent of Q fever, have brought a deeper insight into the pathogen's physiology and offered new possibilities in investigations of inter- or intra-species relatedness. The data generated from these studies in conjunction with the current genomic sequence databases may reveal additional identities ...

Coxiella burnetii Secretion Systems
2012The ability of bacteria to transport proteins across their membranes is integral for interaction with their environment. Distinct families of secretion systems mediate bacterial protein secretion. The human pathogen, Coxiella burnetii encodes components of the Sec-dependent secretion pathway, an export system used for type IV pilus assembly, and a ...

Lipopolysaccharide of Coxiella burnetii
2012A lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is considered to be one of the major determinants of virulence expression and infection of virulent Coxiella burnetii. The LPSs from virulent phase I (LPS I) and from avirulent phase II (LPS II) bacteria were investigated for their chemical composition, structure and biological properties.

The Coxiella burnetii Parasitophorous Vacuole
2012Coxiella burnetii is a bacterial intracellular parasite of eucaryotic cells that replicates within a membrane-bound compartment, or "parasitophorous vacuole" (PV). With the exception of human macrophages/monocytes, the consensus model of PV trafficking in host cells invokes endolysosomal maturation culminating in lysosome fusion. C.

Coxiella burnetii (Q Fever) Pneumonia
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1995Pneumonia is one manifestation of acute Q fever following infection with Coxiella burnetii. Fever, headache, and myalgia dominate the clinical picture of Q fever pneumonia. Cough is nonproductive and may be absent despite the presence of pneumonia. While in most instances pneumonia results in an illness of mild-to-moderate severity, on occasion it is ...

Gene Inactivation in Coxiella burnetii
2014Coxiella burnetii, the agent of human Q fever, is a zoonotic bacterial pathogen with a worldwide distribution. Owing to an historic lack of methods for genetic manipulation, virulence factors deployed by this bacterium for disease pathogenesis are poorly understood. However, the recent advance of host cell-free (axenic) growth of C.

Isolation of coxiella burnetii in Sweden
Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1991Coxiella burnetii was isolated from sheep placentas, which had been collected from farms harbouring humans seropositive to the organism. The isolation of these bacteria is the final evidence that Q fever is a domestic disease in Sweden.

Developmental Biology of Coxiella burnetii
2012The biphasic developmental cycle of Coxiella burnetii is central to the pathogen's natural history and survival. A small, dormant cell morphotype (the small-cell variant or SCV) allows this obligate intracellular bacterium to persist for extended periods outside of host cells, resist environmental conditions that would be lethal to most prokaryotes ...

[Coxiella burnetii osteoarthritis].
Revista clinica espanola, 1992A case of a 25-year-old female characterized by febrile osteoarthritis and arthromyalgias as the only clinical manifestation of a Q fever is discussed. Analytical data were compatible with those of an acute inflammation and serologic findings reached diagnostic levels. Response to Doxycycline treatment was totally satisfactory.
