Isolation of a cytopathic factor from Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cytopathic factor was isolated from M. hyopneumoniae VPP11 membranes. This factor had an isoelectric point of 6.2 and was capable of inducing cytopathic effect in MRC-5 human lung fibroblast culture at a concentration of 250 ng of protein per ml. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of this cytopathic factor showed a major band with a molecular weight of approximately 54,000.

Diversity of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in pig farms revealed by direct molecular typing of clinical material.
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the etiological agent of enzootic pneumonia in swine. Various reports indicate that different strains are circulating in the swine population. We investigated the variety of M. hyopneumoniae strains by a newly developed genetic typing method based on the polyserine repeat motif of the LppS homolog P146. PCR amplification using M. hyopneumoniae specific, conserved pri...
متن کاملGenes involved in translation of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and Mycoplasma synoviae
This is a report on the analysis of genes involved in translation of the complete genomes of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae strain J and 7448 and Mycoplasma synoviae. In both genomes 31 ORFs encoding large ribosomal subunit proteins and 19 ORFs encoding small ribosomal subunit proteins were found. Ten ribosomal protein gene clusters encoding 42 ribosomal proteins were found in M. synoviae, while 8 cl...
متن کاملDetection of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae by polymerase chain reaction in swine presenting respiratory problems
Since Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae isolation in appropriate media is a difficult task and impractical for daily routine diagnostics, Nested-PCR (N-PCR) techniques are currently used to improve the direct diagnostic sensitivity of Swine Enzootic Pneumonia. In a first experiment, this paper describes a N-PCR technique optimization based on three variables: different sampling sites, sample transport m...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae Strain KM014, a Clinical Isolate from South Korea
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the etiological agent of swine enzootic pneumonia, resulting in considerable economic losses in the swine industry. A few genome sequences of M. hyopneumoniae have been reported to date, implying that additional genome data are needed for further genetic studies. Here, we present the annotated genome sequence of M. hyopneumoniae strain KM014.

Direct and indirect immunofluorescence techniques and a culture method were compared for detection of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in lungs of experimentally infected swine. Pneumonic lungs were obtained fiam SPF pigs that had been exposed by contact 6 to 7 weeks previously to other SPF pigs which had been inoculated with the organism. A good association was found between isolation of M. hyopneumon...
