Evidence for the Rapid and Divergent Evolution of Mycoplasmas: Structural and Phylogenetic Analysis of Enolases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Mycoplasmas are a group of prokaryotes without cell walls that have evolved through several rounds of degenerative evolution. With a low cell DNA G + C content and definitively long genetic lineages, mycoplasmas are thought to be in a state of rapid ...

Catabolism in Mollicutes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Mycoplasma genitalium Biofilms Contain Poly-GlcNAc and Contribute to Antibiotic Resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Mycoplasma genitalium is an important etiologic agent of non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU), known for chronicity and multidrug resistance, in which biofilms may play an integral role.

A Bioguided Approach for the Screening of Antibacterial Compounds Isolated From the Hydroalcoholic Extract of the Native Brazilian Bee’s Propolis Using Mollicutes as a Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nature is a vast source of medicinal substances, including propolis, which has been extensively investigated. Propolis is a resinous substance produced by bees from the exudates of plants that they collect and modify in their jaws; it is a rich and ...

Phylogenetic tree of Mollicutes 16S rRNA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The phylogenetic tree was constructed using Maximum Likelihood, including a total of 312 sequences representing Mollicutes taxa. Scorpion sequences are in bold. Red collapsed regions indicate 12 sequences reported in this study from H. arizonensis and S.

Differential Susceptibility of Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma Species to Compound-Enhanced Copper Toxicity

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
RationaleMycoplasmas represent important etiologic agents of many human diseases. Due to increasing antimicrobial resistance and slow rate of novel discovery, unconventional methods of drug discovery are necessary.

Citrus Stubborn Disease: Current Insights on an Enigmatic Problem Prevailing in Citrus Orchards

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Citrus stubborn was initially observed in California in 1915 and was later proven as a graft-transmissible disease in 1942. In the field, diseased citrus trees have compressed and stunted appearances, and yield poor-quality fruits with little market ...

Trachymyrmex septentrionalis Ant Microbiome Assembly Is Unique to Individual Colonies and Castes

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
Within social insect colonies, microbiomes often differ between castes due to their different functional roles and between colony locations. Trachymyrmex septentrionalis fungus-growing ants form colonies throughout the eastern United States and northern ...

The Photosensitizing Activity of Haematoporphyrin on Mollicutes [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1985
The photosensitizing activity of haematoporphyrin (HP) on Mycoplasma hominis and Acholeplasma laidlawii was studied as a function of the phase of growth and the amount of sterols in the cell membrane. Less HP was bound to cells when the membrane had a high sterol content.
