Abstract
The intonation “The king is dead, long live the king” aptly describes the state of Chlamydia research. Genetic-based approaches are rapidly replacing correlative strategies to provide new insights. We describe how current transformation technologies are enhancing progress in understanding Chlamydia infection biology and present key opportunities for further development.
