Proteins sequence analysis of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia [PDF]
A total of twenty (20) contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CCPP) proteins were retrieved from the GenBank (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). The proteins sequences were used to investigate the molecular identity of various CCPP proteins.

Contagious caprine pleuropneumonia: A review [PDF]
The objective of this review is to generate information about the current status of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP) which is recognized as highly infectious, and devastating disease of goats for about 140 years. However, current reports indicated that sheep can be affected.
