Disease relevance of Rickettsiaceae

Endobacteria of the genus Wolbachia in filarial nematodes are related to Rickettsiaceae and can be depleted by tetracycline antibiotics [1].

High impact information on Rickettsiaceae

Detection of mip-like sequences and Mip-related proteins within the family Rickettsiaceae [2].
Detailed phylogenetic analysis of small subunit (SSU) rRNA and chaperonin 60 (Cpn60) sequences testify to polyphyly of the Rickettsiales, and consistently indicate a sisterhood of Rickettsiaceae and mitochondria that excludes RLEs [3].
