Emendation of the family Chlamydiaceae: proposal of a single genus.

This supports a model under which common pathways of intracellular signalling might be utilised by all Chlamydiaceae, even though the specific receptors that mediate introgression into the cell might be highly variable.

The developmental cycle of all members belonging to family Chlamydiaceae is remarkably similar.

In the 1990s new diagnostic techniques have resulted in identification of over 40 chlamydial strains and the splitting of the Chlamydiaceae family into two genera, Chlamydia and Chlamydophila.

Because the tests provide more detailed information about each species, the scientists are reclassifying Chlamydiaceae into nine groups.

Chlamydiaceae bacteria infect many vertebrate hosts, and previous reports based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays and serologic assays that are prone to cross-reaction among chlamydial organisms have been used to describe the prevalence of either DNA fragments or antibodies to Chlamydia species in wild raptorial populations.

Semi-nested PCR was performed by using primers targeting a conserved region of the MOMP gene from Chlamydiaceae (RASO et al.

Chlamydia psittaci is a member of the family Chlamydiaceae. (1) To date, at least 8 serovars and 8 corresponding genotypes are well described.

Recentemente, a familia Chlamydiaceae foi reclassificada em dois generos, Chlamydia e Chlamydophila, com tres e seis especies, respectivamente.
