No significant genetic variants were found, as most variable positions were silent and were detected only in single samples...

A multiplexed real-time PCR assay for rapid detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and identification of serovar L-2, the major cause of Lymphogranuloma venereum in New York. Mol Cell Probes. 2006;20:290-7 pubmed publisher..This assay represents the first real-time PCR method capable of detecting C. trachomatis DNA, and of simultaneously identifying C. trachomatis infection as serovar L-2...

J Clin Microbiol. 1998;36:3686-8 pubmed..The possibility that C. trachomatis omp1 might undergo mutation during such expansion has not been examined systematically. We found no differences in the omp1 sequences from 10 clinical specimens before and after 20 in vitro passages...
