A Bioguided Approach for the Screening of Antibacterial Compounds Isolated From the Hydroalcoholic Extract of the Native Brazilian Bee’s Propolis Using Mollicutes as a Model

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Nature is a vast source of medicinal substances, including propolis, which has been extensively investigated. Propolis is a resinous substance produced by bees from the exudates of plants that they collect and modify in their jaws; it is a rich and ...

Functional Characterization of the Cell Division Gene Cluster of the Wall-less Bacterium Mycoplasma genitalium

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
It is well-established that FtsZ drives peptidoglycan synthesis at the division site in walled bacteria. However, the function and conservation of FtsZ in wall-less prokaryotes such as mycoplasmas are less clear.

Do mycoplasmas cause human cancer? [PDF]

, 2001
A linkage between mycoplasmas and malignancy was mainly proposed in the 1960s when human-associated mycoplasmas were becoming of interest given the novel characterization of the human respiratory pathogen Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

Mycoplasmas: small but perfectly formed [PDF]

, 2015
Interest in mycoplasmas stems from their importance as serious animal and human pathogens, their frequent contamination of cell lines and, because of their small size, for their use as models of the minimal cell concept.They have traditionally been seen ...

Binding of mycoplasmas to solid phase adsorbents [PDF]

, 2005
The capture of mycoplasmas (M. hominis, M. buccale, M. fermentans, M. bovis, M. synoviae, M. gallisepticum and M. arthritidis) based on lipid structures and adhesion molecules present in the mycoplasmal membrane was tested using different chromatographic

Reductive Evolution and Diversification of C5-Uracil Methylation in the Nucleic Acids of Mollicutes

Biomolecules, 2020
The C5-methylation of uracil to form 5-methyluracil (m5U) is a ubiquitous base modification of nucleic acids. Four enzyme families have converged to catalyze this methylation using different chemical solutions.
