The Rickettsiales are a group of obligate intracellular vector-borne Gram-negative bacteria
that include many organisms of clinical and agricultural importance, including Anaplasma …

The genus Brucella, described by Meyer and Shaw in 1920, comprises bacterial pathogens
of veterinary and public health relevance. For 36 years, the genus came to include three …

Recent discoveries of basal extracellular Rickettsiales have illuminated divergent
evolutionary paths to host dependency in later-evolving lineages. Family Rickettsiaceae …

Our understanding of free-living bacterial models like Escherichia coli far outpaces that of
obligate intracellular bacteria, which cannot be cultured axenically. All obligate intracellular …

Bacterial outer membrane (OM) is a self‐protective and permeable barrier, while having
many non‐negligible negative effects in industrial biotechnology. Our previous studies …

To maintain optimal membrane dynamics, cells from all domains of life must acclimate to
various environmental signals in a process referred to as homeoviscous adaptation …

Rickettsia species (spp.) are strict obligate intracellular bacteria, some of which are
pathogenic in their mammalian host, including humans. One critical feature of these stealthy …

Lipid A of Gram-negative bacteria is known to represent a central role for the immunological
activity of endotoxin. Chemical structure and biosynthetic pathways as well as specific …

This review is the tenth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of
matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI) mass spectrometry …

Rickettsiae are Gram-negative obligate intracellular parasites of numerous eukaryotes.
Human pathogens of the transitional group (TRG), typhus group (TG), and spotted fever …
