An expanded genetic toolkit for inducible expression and targeted gene silencing in <i>Rickettsia parkeri</i>

2024-03-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Pathogenic species within the Rickettsia genus are transmitted to humans through arthropod vectors and cause a spectrum of diseases ranging from mild to life-threatening. Despite rickettsiae posing an emerging global health risk, the genetic requirements of their infectious life cycles remain poorly understood. A major hurdle toward building this understanding has been the lack of efficient too...
