The paper identifies CpoS as a key effector for maintaining Chlamydia trachomatis vacuole integrity by regulating sphingolipid supply and shows that disrupting this pathway can clear infection without harming host cells.

This paper identifies over sixty new antichlamydial compounds through a multi-strategy approach, showing potent, selective, and non-toxic activity against Chlamydia.

The paper analyzes the ecology, evolution, and genomic diversity of Rhabdochlamydiaceae, a chlamydial family infecting arthropods, revealing genome reduction and transposable element dynamics.
