Mapping phosphoproteins in Mycoplasma genitalium and Mycoplasma pneumoniae [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2007 Abstract Background Little is known regarding the extent or targets of phosphorylation in mycoplasmas, yet in many other bacterial species phosphorylation is known to play an important role in signaling and regulation of cellular processes. To determine the prevalence of phosphorylation in mycoplasmas, we examined the

Genome size of Mycoplasma genitalium [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1990 The genome size of Mycoplasma genitalium was determined by using restriction enzymes that infrequently cut its DNA. The calculated value of 577 to 590 kilobases is one-fourth smaller than the genome of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, which is considered among the smallest genomes of self-replicating organisms.
