Simkania negevensis, an insight into the biology and clinical importance of a novel member of the Chlamydiales order
- BiologyCritical reviews in microbiology
- 2017
The current knowledge on S. negevensis is summarized, a strong association of the Simkania-containing vacuole with the ER and the presence of an intron in the 23S rRNA encoding gene are summarized and future research challenges are explored.
Simkania negevensis, an Example of the Diversity of the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern among Chlamydiales
- Biology, MedicineAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy
- 2017
It is shown that S. negevensis was susceptible to macrolides, clindamycin, cyclines, rifampin, and quinolones, but unlike other Chlamydiales members, treatment with β-lactams and vancomycin did not induce the formation of aberrant bodies, leading to a completely resistant phenotype.

These findings extend the knowledge of the phylogenetic diversity of the Parachlamydiaceae and demonstrate for the first time that these endocytobionts can naturally develop within amoebae of the genus Hartmannella.

Parachlamydiaceae are potential emerging pathogens that naturally infect free‐living amoebae and may be a reservoir of endosymbionts at the lower temperature of the nasal mucosa, which may be liberated by lysis at higher temperature, for instance, when theAmoeba is inhaled and reaches the lower respiratory tract.

The phylogeny of obligate intracellular coccoid parasites of acanthamoebae isolated from the nasal mucosa of humans was analyzed by the rRNA approach and the results suggest that small amoebae could be environmental reservoirs and vectors for a variety of potentially pathogenic bacteria including members of the Chlamydiaceae.
