Journal ArticleDOI
The 1.2-Megabase Genome Sequence of Mimivirus
Didier Raoult,Stéphane Audic,Catherine Robert,Chantal Abergel,Patricia Renesto,Hiroyuki Ogata,Bernard La Scola,Marie Suzan,Jean-Michel Claverie +8 more
TL;DR: The size and complexity of the Mimivirus genome challenge the established frontier between viruses and parasitic cellular organisms and this new sequence data might help shed a new light on the origin of DNA viruses and their role in the early evolution of eukaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome sequence of Rickettsia bellii illuminates the role of amoebae in gene exchanges between intracellular pathogens.
Hiroyuki Ogata,Bernard La Scola,Stéphane Audic,Patricia Renesto,Guillaume Blanc,Catherine Robert,Pierre-Edouard Fournier,Jean-Michel Claverie,Didier Raoult +8 more
TL;DR: The genome sequence of Rickettsia bellii is presented, the earliest diverging species of known rickettsiae, and it is found that R. bellii very efficiently multiplies in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and survives in the phagocytic amoeba, Acanthamoeba polyphaga.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genome sequence of Rickettsia felis identifies the first putative conjugative plasmid in an obligate intracellular parasite.
Hiroyuki Ogata,Patricia Renesto,Stéphane Audic,Catherine Robert,Guillaume Blanc,Pierre-Edouard Fournier,Hugues Parinello,Jean-Michel Claverie,Didier Raoult +8 more
TL;DR: The sequenced genome of Rickettsia felis demonstrates that complete genome sequencing is the fastest approach to reveal phenotypic characters of recently cultured obligate intracellular bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of rpoB Gene Analysis for Detection and Identification of Bartonella Species
TL;DR: This study investigated the possible identification of various Bartonella species by comparison of RNA polymerase beta-subunit gene (rpoB) sequences and found three restriction enzymes useful for discerning the different strains by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-based design of a cell-free culture medium for Tropheryma whipplei
Patricia Renesto,Nicolas Crapoulet,Hiroyuki Ogata,Bernard La Scola,Guy Vestris,Jean-Michel Claverie,Didier Raoult +6 more
TL;DR: Genomic information can provide sufficient clues for designing axenic media for fastidious and uncultured pathogens, and this work designed a comprehensive medium that allowed three established T whipplei strains from culture with human cells and one new strain from a clinical sample to grow axenically.
