Genome Sequences of Acholeplasma laidlawii Strains Differing in Sensitivity to Ciprofloxacin
Acholeplasma laidlawii is a well-suited model for study of the molecular basis of the adaptation of mollicutes to environmental conditions. Here we present the whole-genome sequences of four strains of A. laidlawii with differential sensitivity to ciprofloxacin.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Acholeplasma laidlawii, a Common Contaminant of Cell Cultures
Mollicutes are important cell culture contaminants which may eventually affect the results of biological assays or affect their interpretation. Acholeplasma laidlawii is one of the most frequent contaminants of cell cultures. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of A. laidlawii strain MDBK/IPV, recovered from Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells.
متن کاملEvaluation of resistance genes in Escherichia coli isolated from toilets in the Islamic Azad University, Mashhad and genome sequencing (tet B, tet A, tet R, OXA 10 and OXA 48) in tetracycline-resistant strains
Aims and Background: E. coli is a normal flora of the human and animal intestine that sometimes causes pathogenesis in the intestine and urinary tract. The aim of this study is to investigate resistance genes in E. coli isolated from toilets in the Islamic Azad University of Mashhad and perform genome sequencing in tetracycline-resistant strains. Methods: This cross-sectional study was perform...
متن کاملExpression of foreign genes and selection of promoter sequences in Acholeplasma laidlawii.
The stable maintenance and expression of foreign genes in mollicutes (mycoplasmas) have been difficult to achieve due to the lack of suitable vectors. In this paper we show for the first time that a replicating vector can been used to express foreign genes other than antibiotic resistance genes in Acholeplasma laidlawii. Plasmids derived from the lactococcal vector pNZ18 could introduce and mai...
متن کاملNonrequiring Member of the Mycoplasmatales
Mycoplasmas recovered from tissue cultures and previously shown to belong to the sterol-nonrequiring group of mycoplasmas have been further characterized. The biological and serological properties of these strains show them to be clearly distinct from Acholeplasma laidlawii and A. granularum, two species of sterol-nonrequiring mycoplasmas recently reclassified. It is proposed that the newly des...
