Complete Genome Sequence of Rickettsia heilongjiangensis, an Emerging Tick-Transmitted Human Pathogen [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rickettsia heilongjiangensis is an emerging tick-transmitted human pathogen causing far-Eastern spotted fever. Here we report the complete sequence and the main features of the genome of R. heilongjiangensis (strain 054).

Surface proteins YbgF and PrsA are major seroreactive antigens of Rickettsia heilongjiangensis, the etiological agent of Far-Eastern spotted fever. This study investigated their potential immunogenicity for protective immunity.Recombinant YbgF and PrsA were used to immunize C3H/HeN mice and rickettsial loads in immunized mouse organs were assessed ...

Detection of a Rickettsia Closely Related to Rickettsia aeschlimannii , “ Rickettsia heilongjiangensis ,” Rickettsia sp. Strain RpA4, and Ehrlichia muris in Ticks Collected in Russia and Kazakhstan [PDF]
Using PCR, we screened 411 ticks from four genera collected in Russia and Kazakhstan for the presence of rickettsiae and ehrlichiae. In Russia, we detected "Rickettsia heilongjiangensis," Rickettsia sp. strain RpA4, and Ehrlichia muris. In Kazakhstan, we detected Rickettsia sp.

Protective immunity against Rickettsia heilongjiangensis in a C3H/HeN mouse model mediated by outer membrane protein B-pulsed dendritic cells [PDF]
Rickettsia heilongjiangensis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that causes Far-Eastern tick-borne spotted fever. Outer membrane protein B (OmpB) is an important surface protein antigen of rickettsiae. In the present study, the ompB gene of R. heilongjiangensis was divided into four fragments, resulting in four recombinant proteins (OmpB-p1, OmpB ...

Rickettsia heilongjiangensis, the causative agent of far eastern spotted fever, is an obligate intracellular gram-negative bacterium that belongs to the spotted fever group rickettsiae. To understand the evolution and pathogenesis of R. heilongjiangensis, we analyzed its genome and compared it with other rickettsial genomes available in GenBank. The R.
