This research assesses the impact of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) vaccination, treatment, and combined vaccination and treatment at the herd and population level in heterogeneous, stochastic, state‐transition models of CBPP transmission. Results from published trials with oxytetracycline or third‐generation macrolides (tulathromycin and ...

Being pathogenic, plastic, and sexual while living with a nearly minimal bacterial genome. [PDF]
Mycoplasmas are commonly described as the simplest self-replicating organisms, whose evolution was mainly characterized by genome downsizing with a proposed evolutionary scenario similar to that of obligate intracellular bacteria such as insect ...

Enzootic nasal tumor virus (ENTV) is the etiological agent responsible for enzootic nasal adenocarcinoma (ENA), a chronic and contagious disease predominantly affecting sheep and goats. ENTV is classified into two distinct types: ENTV‐1, which infects sheep, and ENTV‐2, which infects goats.

Genetic and Serological Analysis of Lipoprotein LppA in Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides LC and Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. capri [PDF]
ABSTRACT The genes encoding the 62-kDa lipoproteins from the Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides large-colony type (LC) strain Y-goat and the M. mycoides subsp. capri strain PG3 were cloned and analyzed by sequencing.

Characterization of the gene for an immunodominant 72 kDa lipoprotein of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides small colony type. [PDF]
With the aim of characterizing specific immunogenic proteins of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides small colony (SC) type, the aetiological agent of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia, a gene encoding a major immunogenic protein of 72 kDa named P72 was ...

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.

Meningitis caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subspecies capri in a goat
A 2-year-old, female goat from Connecticut was submitted for necropsy with a 5-day history of pyrexia and intermittent neurologic signs, including nystagmus, seizures, and circling. Postmortem examination revealed suppurative meningitis.

Abstract An attractive flower from the island of Madagascar has in part saved the lives of thousands of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Random mutations and alterations to the genome led to the evolution of genes encoding enzymes, which would provide the periwinkle flower an arsenal of secondary metabolites to survive within the ...

Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) caused by vaccine strain T1/44 of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC. [PDF]
A study was carried out on four adult cattle to assess the pathogenicity of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides SC strain T1/44, currently used as a vaccine for the control of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) in Namibia. Post mortem examination 9
