Risk factors associated with intramammary colonization with Mollicutes in dairy cattle from Southeast Brazil [PDF]

Ciência Rural, 2021
: Bacteria of Mollicutes Class are associated with intramammary infection and decrease in milk production. This study investigated the occurrence of Mollicutes and elucidated their risk factors in dairy herds from Southeast Brazil. For this, milk samples

The Motility of Mollicutes [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2003
Recent experiments show that the conformation of filament proteins play a role in the motility and morphology of many different types of bacteria. Conformational changes in the protein subunits may produce forces to drive propulsion and cell division. Here we present a molecular mechanism by which these forces can drive cell motion.

Purine and pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism in Mollicutes

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2007
Several mollicute genome projects are underway, offering unique opportunities to study genes and metabolic pathways on a genome-wide scale. Here, we have analyzed the conservation and diversity of purine and pyrimidine metabolism in mycoplasmas.

Comparison of different NAT assays for the detection of microorganisms belonging to the class Mollicutes [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research, 2017
Background Mollicutes detection can be cumbersome due to their slow growth in vitro. For this reason, the use of DNA based on generic molecular tests represents an alternative for rapid, sensitive and specific detection of these microorganism.

Species-Specific Bacterial Associations Emerge From Stochastically Assembled Microbiomes in Northeastern American Fireflies. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Many insects harbour microbial communities that can profoundly influence the biology of their host. Yet, the relative contribution of random exposure (i.e., stochastic) events and deterministic ecological factors in shaping these communities remains unclear for most taxa.

Outcomes of a Routine Screening Protocol to Prevent Metamycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infection in Lung Transplant Recipients. [PDF]

Transpl Infect Dis
This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.

Comparison of culture and pcr for detection of field isolates of bovine milk mollicutes [PDF]

Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2020
Mycoplasma mastitis raises significant concerns in the dairy industry worldwide. The study objective was to develop an accurate and rapid screening method for identification of field isolates of Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma species and investigate ...

Exposure to Oxy-Tetracycline Changes Gut Bacterial Community Composition in Rainbow Trout: A Preliminary Study

Animals, 2021
The extensive use of antibiotics is evident in most of the livestock and aquaculture management for inhibiting pathogen infection. Korean aquaculture depends on the usage of oxy-tetracycline for growing rainbow trout.

Case Report: About a Case of Hyperammonemia Syndrome Following Lung Transplantation: Could Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing Improve the Clinical Management?

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Background:Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp. are responsible for opportunistic infections in transplant patients, sometimes causing a life-threatening hyperammonemia syndrome.

Phytoplasma: Phytopathogenic Mollicutes [PDF]

Annual Review of Microbiology, 2000
▪ Abstract  During the past decade, research has yielded new knowledge about the plant and insect host ranges, geographical distribution, and phylogenetic relationships of phytoplasmas, and a taxonomic system has emerged in which distinct phytoplasmas are named as separate “Candidatus phytoplasma species.” In large part, this progress has resulted ...
