Isolation of Chlamydia pneumoniae clonal variants by a focus-forming assay.

Infection and immunity - 1 Oct 2002

Abstract excerpt

Chlamydia pneumoniae is an obligate intracellular prokaryotic human pathogen that causes community-acquired respiratory infection and has been associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Unexpected results from genomic sequencing indicate that significant intrastrain polymorphism exists for some C. pneumoniae isolates. These polymorphisms could reflect genotypes with differing disease-causing...
