Reductive Evolution and Diversification of C5-Uracil Methylation in the Nucleic Acids of Mollicutes
Biomolecules, 2020 The C5-methylation of uracil to form 5-methyluracil (m5U) is a ubiquitous base modification of nucleic acids. Four enzyme families have converged to catalyze this methylation using different chemical solutions.

The Photosensitizing Activity of Haematoporphyrin on Mollicutes [PDF]
Microbiology, 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.

Characterization of an Immunoglobulin Binding Protein (IbpM) From Mycoplasma pneumoniae
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Bacteria evolved many ways to invade, colonize and survive in the host tissue. Such complex infection strategies of other bacteria are not present in the cell-wall less Mycoplasmas.

Cytoskeleton of <i>Mollicutes</i>
Microbial Physiology, 2006 <i>Mollicutes</i> are a class of bacteria that lack a peptidoglycan layer but have various cell shapes. They perform chromosome segregation and binary fission in a well-organized manner. Especially, species with polarized cell morphology duplicate their membrane protrusion at a position adjacent to the original one and move the new ...

Differences in Gut Microbes Across Age and Sex Linked to Metabolism and Microbial Stability in a Hibernating Mammal. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe gut microbiome has a well‐documented relationship with host fitness, physiology, and behavior. Here we examine a wild population of yellow‐bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventer), an obligate winter hibernator, to quantify multivariate associations between host‐associated factors (e.g., age, sex, environmental harshness, and social behavior), and gut

Growth and Nutrition of Mollicute-Infected Maize [PDF]
Plant Disease, 2002 Maize bushy stunt phytoplasma (MBSP) and corn stunt spiroplasma (CSS) diseases are widespread in Brazil. The leafhopper Dalbulus maidis is the insect vector for these pathogenic mollicutes. The effects of these diseases on the development of maize plants and the possible interaction of soil water availability on these effects were evaluated in two ...
