A typhus group-specific protease defies reductive evolution in rickettsiae.

Nicole C Ammerman1, Joseph J Gillespie, Andrew F Neuwald, Bruno W Sobral, Abdu F Azad.   

Abstract

Phylogenomics reveals extreme gene loss in typhus group (TG) rickettsiae relative to the levels for other rickettsial lineages. We report here a curious protease-encoding gene (ppcE) that is conserved only in TG rickettsiae. As a possible determinant of host pathogenicity, ppcE warrants consideration in the development of therapeutics against epidemic and murine typhus.
