Computational Modeling of the Chlamydial Developmental Cycle Reveals a Potential Role for Asymmetric Division
ABSTRACT Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that progresses through an essential multicell form developmental cycle. Infection of the host is initiated by the elementary body (EB). Once in the host, the EB cell differentiates into the noninfectious, but replication-competen...
