The stereospecificities of seven dehydrogenases from Acholeplasma laidlawii. The simplest historical model that explains dehydrogenase stereospecificity.

Expression 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...

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.

Genome Sequences of Acholeplasma laidlawii Strains with Increased Resistance to Tetracycline and Melittin

Acholeplasma laidlawii is a well-suited model for studying the molecular basis for adapting mollicutes to environmental conditions. Here, we present the whole-genome sequences of two strains of A. laidlawii with increased resistance to tetracycline and melittin.

Mycoplasmatales virus-laidlawii 2, a new virus isolated from Acholeplasma laidlawii.

Release of a group 1 mycoplasma virus from Acholeplasma laidlawii after treatment with mitomycin C.

A rod-shaped group 1 mycoplasma virus was released from Acholeplasma laidlawii strain JA2 after treatment with 2.5 mug of mitomycin C per ml. Similar treatment of A. laidlawii strain Bju failed to stimulate release of any PFU.
