Chlamydia trachomatis: when the virulence-associated genome backbone imports a ...
Borges, Vítor; Cordeiro, Dora; Salas, Ana Isabel; Lodhia, Zohra; Correia, Cristina; Isidro, Joana; Fernandes, Cândida; Rodrigues, Ana MariaChlamydia trachomatis is the most prevalent sexually transmitted bacterium worldwide and the causative agent of trachoma. Its strains are classified according to their ompA genotypes, which are strongly linked to differential tissue tropism and disease outcomes [ocular disease, urogenital disease and lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV)]. While the genome-based species phylogenetic tree presents four main clades corr...
