The Rickettsia conorii autotransporter protein Sca1 promotes adherence to nonphagocytic mammalian cells

open access: yes, 2010
The pathogenesis of spotted fever group (SFG) Rickettsia species, including R. conorii and R. rickettsii, is acutely dependent on adherence to and invasion of host cells, including cells of the mammalian endothelial system.

Rickettsia conorii and R. Promazekii Proteome analysis by 2DE-MS : A step toward functional analysis of Rickettsial genomes

open access: yes, 2005
International audienceIn this work, we present a comparative two-dimensional (2D) PAGE analysis of Rickettsia conorii and Rickettsia prowazekii. This analysis reveals protein spots that were either unique to or common to both strains, some of them being ...

Genotypic identification of seven Rickettsia conorii strains.

open access: yesActa virologica, 1994
Restriction endonuclease fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were used to characterize the genotypic diversity of 7 strains of Rickettsia conorii from South Africa, Ethiopia, Morocco, India and Russia. The strains of R.

Role of T lymphocytes in Rickettsia conorii infection.

open access: yesActa virologica, 1982
Adoptive transfer of T lymphocytes harvested from spleen of Rickettsia conorii-infected DBA/2 mice to intact and cyclophosphamide- (CPA-) pretreated syngeneic mice protected the latter from lethal infection caused by R, conorii. Protection from infection was not observed in recipient mice given immune serum or B lymphocytes and macrophages from the ...
