In vivo role of capsular polysaccharide in Mycoplasma mycoides [PDF]
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2019 Capsular polysaccharides have been confirmed to be an important virulence trait in many gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Similarly, they are proposed to be virulence traits in minimal Mycoplasma that cause disease in humans and animals.

Mycoplasma mycoidessubsp.capriandMycoplasma mycoidessubsp.mycoidesLC can be grouped into a single subspecies [PDF]
Veterinary Research, 2006 Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. capri and Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides LC can be combined into one taxon on the basis of several contributions on both DNA sequence and protein analyses reported in the literature. Moreover, for the differentiation and identification of mycoplasmas of the "mycoides cluster", we investigated the rpoB gene, encoding the ...

Mycoplasma bovis shares insertion sequences with Mycoplasma agalactiae and Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC: Evolutionary and developmental aspects [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2005 Three new insertion elements, ISMbov1, ISMbov2 and ISMbov3, which are closely related to ISMag1 (Mycoplasma agalactiae), ISMmy1 and IS1634 (both Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC), respectively, have been discovered in Mycoplasma bovis, an important pathogen of cattle. Southern blotting showed that the genome of M.

Molecular mechanisms of pathogenicity of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC [PDF]
The Veterinary Journal, 2007 Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC, the aetiological agent of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP), is considered the most pathogenic of the Mycoplasma species. Its virulence is probably the result of a coordinated action of various components of an antigenically and functionally dynamic surface architecture.

Identification and characterization of IS1296 in Mycoplasma mycoides subsp, mycoides SC and presence in related mycoplasmas [PDF]
Gene, 1995 IS1296, a new insertion sequence belonging to the IS3 family of insertion elements has been identified in Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides (Mmm) biotype small colony (SC), the agent of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP). IS1296 is 1485-bp long and has 30-bp inverted repeats.

Study of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. Mycoides exopolysaccharides [PDF]
, 2013 Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides (Mmm) is responsible for contagious bovine pleuropneumonia, a severe lung disease of cattle and buffaloes. Mmm belongs to the class Mollicutes, grouping wall-less bacteria that have evolved by major gene losses and are considered the smallest self-replicating organisms.
