CT295 Is Chlamydia trachomatis ’ Phosphoglucomutase and a Type 3 Secretion Substrate

In conclusion, we established that the conversion of Glc1P into Glc6P was accomplished by a bacterial PGM, through the acquisition of a T3S signal in a “housekeeping” protein. Acquisition of this signal likely contributed to shaping glycogen metabolism within Chlamydiaceae.
