Cell Type Development in <i>Chlamydia trachomatis</i> Follows a Program Intrinsic to the Reticulate Body

2020-03-14

Abstract excerpt

The obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis ( Ctr ) is reliant on an unusual developmental cycle consisting of two cell forms termed the elementary body (EB) and the reticulate body (RB). The EB is infectious and utilizes a type III secretion system and preformed effector proteins during invasion, but does not replicate. The RB replicates in the host cell but is non-infectious.
