Chlamydia Trachomatis
Chlamydia trachomatis is a gram-negative bacterium that can repeat just inside a host cell. Throughout the C. trachomatis life cycle, the microscopic organisms take on two particular structures. Basic bodies are 200 to 400 nanometers over, and are encircled by an unbending cell divider that permits them to get by outside of a host cell. This structure can start another disease in the event that it comes into contact with a vulnerable host cell. Reticulate bodies are 600 to 1500 nanometers over, and are discovered distinctly inside host cells. Neither structure is motile. The C. trachomatis
genome is generously littler than that of numerous other microorganisms at around 1.04 megabases, encoding roughly 900 genes. Several significant metabolic capacities are not encoded in the C. trachomatis genome, and rather, are likely rummaged from the host cell. Notwithstanding the
chromosome that contains the vast majority of the genome, almost all C. trachomatis strains convey a 7.5 kilobase plasmid that contains 8 genes. The job of this plasmid is obscure, however strains without the plasmid have been separated, proposing it isn't required for endurance of the bacterium.
