Contagious Caprine Pleuropneumonia: Seroprevalence and Risk Factors in Goats in Derashe Zone, Southern Ethiopia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Mycoplasma capricolum subspecies capripneumoniae is the causative agent of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP), a highly infectious and economically significant disease affecting goats and sheep. CCPP is characterized by high morbidity and mortality rates, leading to substantial financial losses in affected ...

Seroprevalence of Contagious Caprine Pleuropneumonia in Selected Districts of Borana Zone, Oromia Region, Southern Ethiopia. [PDF]
A cross‐sectional study, conducted on contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP) in the goat population, revealed a seroprevalence of 15.85% (95% CI: 12.06%–20.54%). Undertaking a broader research involving a larger‐scale study and reservoir species, including sheep, is recommended to gain deeper practical insights into the disease.

Extracellular vesicles of minimalistic Mollicutes as mediators of immune modulation and horizontal gene transfer [PDF]
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are central components of bacterial secretomes, including the small, cell wall-less Mollicutes. Although EV release in Mollicutes has been reported, EV proteomic composition and function have not been explored yet.

Capsular Polysaccharide Production in Bacteria of the Mycoplasma Genus: A Huge Diversity of Pathways and Synthases for So-Called Minimal Bacteria. [PDF]
Synthases are membrane‐embedded glycosyltransferases enabling the polymerization and secretion of homopolysaccharides that can form a capsule around mycoplasma cells. The nature of the capsular polymer is tightly linked to different structural features of the synthase.
