Molecular and functional analysis of the Rickettsia typhi groESL operon

Gene, 2002
The groESL operon from an obligate, intracellular, Gram-negative bacterium Rickettsia typhi, the etiologic agent of murine typhus, was cloned and sequenced. The sequence analysis of 2229 bp of the groESL operon reveals two open reading frames of 288 nucleotides (groES) and 1653 nucleotides (groEL) separated by 20 nucleotides.

Prevalence of Antibodies to Coxiella burnetii, Rickettsia conorii, and Rickettsia typhi in Seven African Countries

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1995
The prevalences of antibodies reactive with Coxiella burnetti, Rickettsia conorii, and Rickettsia typhi were determined by indirect fluorescent antibody testing of sera from seven African countries. The seroprevalences of antibodies reactive with C. burnetti and R.
