α-Enolase, an Adhesion-Related Factor of Mycoplasma bovis
Mycoplasma bovis is the causative agent of Mycoplasma bovis-associated disease (MbAD). Although the mechanisms underlying M. bovis adherence to host cells is not clear, recent studies have shown that the cell surface protein α-enolase facilitates bacterial invasion and dissemination in the infected host. In this study, we cloned, expressed and purified recombinant M. bovis α-enolase and induced...
متن کاملLipoprotein p37 from Mycoplasma hyorhinis inhibiting mammalian cell adhesion.
p37 protein is a membrane lipoprotein of Mycoplasma hyorhinis, and our previous work showed that there was high ratio of M. hyorhinis infection in human gastric carcinoma. To investigate the possible functions of p37 in cancer development, the nucleotide sequence of p37 gene was modified and expressed well in transfected cells. We found that p37 localized at the Golgi apparatus and could be sec...
متن کاملFactors influencing the cell adhesion and invasion capacity of Mycoplasma gallisepticum
BACKGROUND The cell invasiveness of Mycoplasma gallisepticum, the causative agent of respiratory disease in chickens and infectious sinusitis in turkeys, may be a substantial factor in the well-known chronicity of these diseases and in the systemic spread of infection. To date, not much is known about the host factors and mechanisms involved in promotion or obstruction of M. gallisepticum adher...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Characterization of a Surface-Localized Adhesion Protein in Mycoplasma bovis Hubei-1 Strain
Mycoplasma bovis (M. bovis) is an important pathogen that causes various bovine diseases, such as mastitis in cows and pneumonia in calves. The surface proteins are generally thought to play a central role in the pathogenesis of this organism. We screened the entire genome of M. bovis Hubei-1 and discovered a gene named vpmaX that encodes the 25 kDa variable surface lipoprotein A (VpmaX). Seque...
متن کاملAdhesion of Mycoplasma pneumoniae to sulfated glycolipids and inhibition by dextran sulfate.
A virulent strain of Mycoplasma pneumoniae was metabolically labeled with [3H]palmitate and studied for binding to glycolipids and to WiDr human colon adenocarcinoma cells. The organism binds strongly to sulfatide and other sulfated glycolipids, such as seminolipid and lactosylsulfatide which all contain terminal Gal(3SO4) beta 1-residues and weakly to some neolactoseries neutral glycolipids. M...
