Ca. Similichlamydia in Epitheliocystis Co-infection of Gilthead Seabream Gills: Unique Morphological Features of a Deep Branching Chlamydial Family

Abstract: The Planctomycetes-Verrucomicrobia-Chlamydiae (PVC) bacterial superphylum constitutes a broad range of organisms with an intriguing array of ultrastructural morphologies, including intracellular membranes and compartments and their corresponding complex genomes encoding these forms. The phylum Chlamydiae are all obligate intracellular bacteria and, although much is already known of their genomes from various families and how these regulate the various morphological forms, we know remarkably little about what i… Show more

“…All described Chlamydiae exhibit a similar biphasic developmental cycle, including the most deeply branching clades (Abdelrahman and Belland, 2005 ; Steigen et al, 2013 ; Seth-Smith et al, 2017 ). The transcription factor Euo targets more than 100 promoters in W. chondrophila , and may be a key player in cell cycle regulation (Domman and Horn, 2015 ; de Barsy et al, 2016 ).…”

“…Although the genome of this strain is partially covered, peptidoglycan synthesis genes are located in various regions along the chromosome, which reinforces the likely absence of these genes from S. epinepheli . Indeed, this bacterium divides through a budding process (Seth-Smith et al, 2017 ), which suggests that the family Parilichlamydiaceae may present a significantly different division mechanism than other chlamydial lineages.…”

“…169 Complicating the differential diagnosis of epitheliocystis for pathologists is the recent realization that other bacteria from completely different bacterial phyla including beta-and gamma-proteobacteria 80,152 may cause similar diseases as CRB. Many of these alternative agents may have subtle differences in their morphology compared to chlamydial agents so microscopic differentiation may be possible, 153 however, this will need to be supported by PCR and in situ hybridization for confirmatory diagnosis at this stage.…”

“…Initially containing only pathogenic species, environmental or amoeba symbiotic organisms have been recently described [reviewed in Horn 2008 ]. Because those are non-pathogenic but share fundamental cell biology processes with the pathogenic ones, they form excellent model systems to decipher the molecular bases of this historical plague to society (Seth-Smith et al 2017 ; König et al 2017 ).…”
