Structural determination of <i>Rickettsia</i> lipid A without chemical extraction confirms shorter acyl chains in later-evolving Spotted Fever Group pathogens

2023-07-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Rickettsiae are Gram-negative obligate intracellular parasites of numerous eukaryotes. Human pathogens of the Transitional Group (TRG), Typhus Group (TG), and Spotted Fever Group (SFG) rickettsiae infect blood-feeding arthropods, have dissimilar clinical manifestations, and possess unique genomic and morphological attributes. Lacking glycolysis, rickettsiae pilfer numerous metabolites from host...
