Rickettsial Actin‐Based Motility

1 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

Actin-based motility (ABM) is employed by spotted fever group (SFG) rickettsiae, such as Rickettsia rickettsii, to promote cell-to-cell spread. Time-lapse video microscopy revealed that ABM is not strictly confined to SFG rickettsiae as typhus group R. typhi moved at approximately the same rate as R. rickettsii (approximately 4 micro m/min), but in a highly erratic fashion. A number of common behaviors were...
