One Yeast, Sixteen Synthetic Chromosomes, Infinite Possibilities
ABSTRACT The evolution of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, from a genetically tractable model organism to a chassis for genome‐scale engineering represents one of the most influential trajectories in eukaryotic biology. The Synthetic Yeast Genome Project (Sc2.0) embodies the current height of this trajectory, having now delivered functional ...

Enzymes of pyrimidine deoxyribonucleotide metabolism in Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides [PDF]
Cell-free extracts of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides were assayed for enzymes associated with the salvage synthesis of pyrimidine deoxyribonucleotides. They possessed kinases for deoxycytidine, (d)CMP, thymidine (deoxyuridine), dTMP, and nucleoside diphosphates; dCTPase and dUTPase; dCMP deaminase; thymidine (deoxyuridine) phosphorylase; and dUMP (

The evolving landscape of molecular visualization
Abstract Molecular visualization plays a central role in structural biology, transforming data into representations that reveal how molecular form relates to function. Since the construction of the first protein models in the 1950s, visualization practices have evolved in tandem with experimental and computational advances, shaping both research and ...

Genes found essential in other mycoplasmas are dispensable in Mycoplasma bovis.
Mycoplasmas are regarded to be useful models for studying the minimum genetic complement required for independent survival of an organism. Mycoplasma bovis is a globally distributed pathogen causing pneumonia, mastitis, arthritis, otitis media and ...

A Review of Infectious and Non‐Infectious Causes of Pregnancy Loss in Goats
ABSTRACT Goats play a vital role in global agriculture, particularly in developing regions, and are increasingly kept as companion animals. Given their economic and social importance, pregnancy losses in goats represent a substantial challenge, leading to considerable economic losses and raising concerns about animal welfare and public health, as some ...

A Specific Polysaccharide from Mycoplasma mycoides [PDF]
SUMMARY: Washed suspensions of Mycoplasma mycoides var. mycoides were found to contain c. 10 % by weight of carbohydrate. The only sugars detected in hydrolysates were galactose and ribose. A galactan was obtained by extraction with warm aqueous phenol.

Weaving knowledges to support wildlife health surveillance in Kenya's pastoral rangelands
Abstract In wildlife–livestock–human interfaces, pathogens capable of spreading between wild and domestic animals and humans have important implications for conservation outcomes, economics, and public health. Robust wildlife health surveillance can help address these risks.

Immunoelectrophoretic Analysis of Mycoplasma mycoides var. mycoides [PDF]
Acrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to show the similarities and differences in the membrane proteins of two vaccine and two virulent strains of Mycoplasma mycoides var. mycoides. Immunoelectrophoretic (IEP) analysis was also used to partially characterize the associated antigens ...
