Coxiella burnetii inhibits host immunity by a protein phosphatase adapted from glycolysis

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Many effectors of the Coxiella burnetii Dot/Icm transporter are important for its virulence, but the lack of understanding of their biochemical activity prevents the use of them as potential therapeutic targets.

Molecular methods routinely used to detect Coxiella burnetii in ticks cross-react with Coxiella-like bacteria [PDF]

Infection Ecology & Epidemiology, 2015
Background: Q fever is a widespread zoonotic disease caused by Coxiella burnetii. Ticks may act as vectors, and many epidemiological studies aim to assess C. burnetii prevalence in ticks.

Typing of Uncultured Isolates of Coxiella burnetii and Coxiella-Like Microorganisms Associated with Ticks Using 16S rRNA Gene Nucleotide Sequence Analysis

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2023
The causative agent of Q fever, the intracellular pathogen Coxiella burnetii, is found almost worldwide; many types of blood-sucking ticks that are dangerous to animals and humans are involved in the circulation of the pathogen.

Detection of Coxiella burnetii in Ambient Air after a Large Q Fever Outbreak. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
One of the largest Q fever outbreaks ever occurred in the Netherlands from 2007-2010, with 25 fatalities among 4,026 notified cases. Airborne dispersion of Coxiella burnetii was suspected but not studied extensively at the time.

Coxiella burnetii Phagocytosis Is Regulated by GTPases of the Rho Family and the RhoA Effectors mDia1 and ROCK [PDF]

, 2015
The GTPases belonging to the Rho family control the actin cytoskeleton rearrangements needed for particle internalization during phagocytosis. ROCK and mDia1 are downstream effectors of RhoA, a GTPase involved in that process.

Permeability of Coxiella burnetii to ribonucleosides [PDF]

Microbiology, 2002
Knowledge about transport in Coxiella burnetii, an obligate phagolysosomal parasite, is incomplete. The authors investigated the capability of isolated, intact, host-free Coxiella to transport ribonucleosides while incubated at a pH value typical of lysosomes.

Diagnosis of Coxiella burnetii infection via metagenomic next-generation sequencing: a case report

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Coxiella burnetii, the etiologic agent of Q fever, is mainly responsible for endocardite. But there are only a few cases of Coxiella burnetii-caused wound infection have been published, because the pathogen is very difficult to isolate using ...

Development and evaluation of an up-converting phosphor technology-based lateral flow assay for rapid and quantitative detection of Coxiella burnetii phase I strains

BMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacterium that causes a zoonotic disease commonly called Q fever globally. In this study, an up-converting phosphor technology-based lateral flow (UPT-LF) assay was established for ...
