The spiralin genes from two phytopathogenic spiroplasmas, Spiroplasma phoeniceum and Spiroplasma kunkelii, were amplified by PCR, cloned, and sequenced. Comparison of the amino acid sequences of the five spiralins analyzed to date confirm that the spiralins have a general amphiphilic character and possess a conserved lipoprotein signal peptide.

Identification and characterization of traE genes of Spiroplasma kunkelii
Gene, 2004Four traE homologs, designated traE1, traE2, traE3 and traE4, were identified and amplified from the genome of the leafhopper-transmitted corn stunt pathogen Spiroplasma kunkelii and were predicted to encode membrane-bound adenine tri-phosphatases (ATPases). Deduced proteins of all traE genes have 62.3% to 89.9% similarity to the conserved VirB4 domain

Predicted ATP-binding cassette systems in the phytopathogenic mollicute Spiroplasma kunkelii
Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2004Spiroplasma kunkelii is a cell wall-free, helical, and motile mycoplasma-like organism that causes corn stunt disease in maize. The bacterium has a compact genome with a gene set approaching the minimal complement necessary for cellular life and pathogenesis. A set of 21 ATP-binding cassette (ABC) domains was identified during the annotation of a draft

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2003
Spiroplasma kunkelii, the causative agent of corn stunt disease in maize (Zea maysL.), is a helical, cell wall-less prokaryote assigned to the class Mollicutes. As part of a project to sequence the entire S. kunkelii genome, we analyzed an 85-kb DNA segment from the pathogenic strain CR2-3x. This genome segment contains 101 ORFs and two tRNA genes. The

New Developments in the Culture of Spiroplasma Kunkelii, The Corn Stunt Spiroplasma
1988Spiroplasma kunkelii, the corn stunt spiroplasma (CSS), is one of several Spiroplasma species that have been isolated from the plant habitat. Of those proven or suspected to be plant pathogenic, S. kunkelii is the most fastidious in its requirements for growth in vitro. S.

Defects of helicity and motility in the corn stunt spiroplasma, Spiroplasma kunkelii
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1989Serum-free medium LD59 was used for primary isolation of Spiroplasma kunkelii (corn stunt spiroplasma) from diseased corn plants from Mississippi. Several strains were cloned in triplicate from one primary pure culture. Some of the strains were helical in cell shape, some were nonhelical, and some were partially helical, consisting of helical and ...
