Abstract

DNA sequences encoding the GroES and GroEL proteins of Orientia tsutsugamushi were amplified by the PCR and sequenced. Pairwise alignment of full-length groES and groEL gene sequences indicated high sequence similarity (90.4-100% and 90.3-100%) in O. tsutsugamushi, suggesting that these genes are good candidates for the molecular diagnosis and phylogenetic analysis of scrub typhus. Comparisons of the 56-kD type-specific antigen (TSA) protein gene and the groES and groEL genes showed that genotypes based on the 56-kD TSA gene were not related to a cluster containing the groES and groEL genes in a dendrogram, suggesting that a gene rearrangement may be associated with homologous recombination in mites.
