Disease relevance of Neorickettsia

Its position in the phylogenetic tree constructed with gltA confirmed that found in a phylogenetic tree constructed with 16S rRNA genes and that it belongs in the alpha subgroup of the class Proteobacteria and that it is closely related to but independent from the genera Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, and Neorickettsia [1].

High impact information on Neorickettsia

Analysis of p51, groESL, and the major antigen P51 in various species of Neorickettsia, an obligatory intracellular bacterium that infects trematodes and mammals [2].
Polymerase chain reaction analysis was performed on formalin-fixed colon tissue or whole blood to show the presence of Neorickettsia risticii DNA, the causative agent of PHF [3].
