Evasion of autophagy mediated by Rickettsia surface protein OmpB is critical for virulence [PDF]

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2019
Rickettsia are obligate intracellular bacteria that evade antimicrobial autophagy in the host cell cytosol by unknown mechanisms. Other cytosolic pathogens block different steps of autophagy targeting, including the initial step of polyubiquitin-coat ...

Proteomic Analysis of Rickettsia prowazekii

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2005
Abstract: Rickettsia prowazekii is an obligate intracellular gram‐negative bacterium. Comparative proteomics study of a virulent strain (Breinl) versus an avirulent strain (Madrid E) was performed using an integrated liquid chromatography and mass spectrometer. About 30% of predicted proteins were detected and identified. Among the detected proteins,

Sequence analysis of the Rickettsia prowazekii gyrA gene

Gene, 1994
The Rickettsia prowazekii (Rp) gyrA gene, which codes for a subunit of DNA gyrase in this obligate intracellular bacterium, has been isolated and characterized. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed an open reading frame (ORF), initiating with a GTG start codon, of 2718 bp that could encode a protein of 905 amino acids (aa) with a calculated M(r) of ...

Rickettsia prowazekii, ribosomes and slow growth

Trends in Microbiology, 1995
Some bacteria, such as Rickettsia prowazekii, grow slowly, not with anticipation of a future feast, but because it is evolutionarily advantageous to do so. This creates apparent paradoxes for understanding their physiology and biochemistry. These rickettsiae have a ribosome concentration higher than expected if these ribosomes support translation at ...

Development of Rickettsia prowazekii DNA Vaccine

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003
Abstract: Rickettsia prowazekii, the etiologic agent of louse‐borne typhus, is listed as a category B agent under the select agent list of the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. R. prowazekii was placed on the select agent list due to its potential to cause epidemic, high mortality in untreated and/or misdiagnosed cases, and ...
