Rickettsiales and rickettsial diseases in Australia
Currently, there are 12 known Rickettsiales species in Australia. However research into the diversity and range of these agents in Australia is still far from complete.

Background Among the 17 genes encoding autotransporter proteins of the "surface cell antigen" (sca) family in the currently sequenced Rickettsia genomes, ompA, sca5 (ompB) and sca4 (gene D), have been extensively used for identification and phylogenetic ...

Identification and initial topological analysis of the Rickettsia prowazekii ATP/ADP translocase
The Rickettsia prowazekii ATP/ADP translocase was identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and immunoblot analysis using antibodies raised against a synthetic peptide corresponding in sequence to the carboxyl ...

Directed mutagenesis of the Rickettsia prowazekii pld gene encoding phospholipase D
Rickettsia prowazekii, the causative agent of epidemic typhus, is an obligately intracytoplasmic bacterium, a lifestyle that imposes significant barriers to genetic manipulation.

GENOMOSYSTEMATICS OF RICKETTSIAE
The definition of the term genome was given by the German botanist G. Winkler almost one hundred years ago in 1920. A genome definition for bacterial (rickettsia) with a single chromosome was recently presented from the perspective of information ...

UNUSUAL ORGANIZATION OF THE RIBOSOMAL-RNA GENES IN RICKETTSIA-PROWAZEKII
We describe here the organization of the rRNA genes in Rickettsia prowazekii. In this organism, the 23S and the 5S rRNA genes are tightly linked to each other, whereas the 16S rRNA gene is separated from this cluster.

Rickettsia typhi possesses phospholipase A2 enzymes that are involved in infection of host cells.
The long-standing proposal that phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes are involved in rickettsial infection of host cells has been given support by the recent characterization of a patatin phospholipase (Pat2) with PLA2 activity from the pathogens Rickettsia ...
