Chlamydia trachomatis exploits sphingolipid metabolic pathways during infection of phagocytes

ABSTRACT Chlamydiae are obligate intracellular pathogens that utilize host cell metabolites for catabolic and anabolic processes. The bacteria replicate in epithelial cells from which they take up sphingolipids (SL) and incorporate them into the chlamydial membrane and the vacuole (termed inclusion)...
