Purine and pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism in Mollicutes [PDF]

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.

Predicting the minimal translation apparatus: lessons from the reductive evolution of mollicutes. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2014
Mollicutes is a class of parasitic bacteria that have evolved from a common Firmicutes ancestor mostly by massive genome reduction. With genomes under 1 Mbp in size, most Mollicutes species retain the capacity to replicate and grow autonomously.

Catabolism in Mollicutes [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1992
The small genome size of mollicutes, and particularly mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas, precludes their possession of the extensive range of metabolic activities present in most other bacterial groups. Demonstrated catabolic activities appear primarily to be associated with energy generation, rather than the provision of substrates for synthetic pathways ...

Metabolomic analysis of three Mollicute species.

PLoS ONE, 2014
We present a systematic study of three bacterial species that belong to the class Mollicutes, the smallest and simplest bacteria, Spiroplasma melliferum, Mycoplasma gallisepticum, and Acholeplasma laidlawii.

Occurrence of Avian Mycoplasmas in Free-Living Muscovy-Ducks (Cairina Moschata) [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2020
The present study aimed to investigate, by culture and PCR, the occurrence of Mollicutes, Mycoplasma gallisepticum and Mycoplasma synoviae in free-living Muscovy-ducks (Cairina moschata) from the Rio Zoo, RJ, Brazil.

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 ...

Comparative genomics of Mollicutes-related endobacteria supports a late invasion into Mucoromycota fungi

Communications Biology, 2023
Probing the evolution of bacterial endosymbionts in Mucoromycota - Mollicutes-related endobacteria (MRE) - reveals that the genera Linnemannia and Benniella acquired MRE after host divergence from a common ancestor.
