چکیده

Partial sequences of the RNase P RNA gene (rnpB) were obtained from a number of hemoplasmas and other Mycoplasma species. Phylogenetic analysis of these sequences showed that all hemoplasmas were present within a single clade and were most closely related to Mycoplasma fastidiosum, similar to the results found with 16S rRNA gene phylogeny.

Identification of a novel Hemoplasma species from pigs in Zhejiang province, China

Hemoplasmas belong to Mycoplasmataceae (Mollicutes: Mycoplasmatales) and are able to infect a broad range of mammalian species. We investigated prevalence of hemotropic mycoplasma species in pig farms in the region of Zhejiang by a PCR scheme using universal primers targeting 16S rRNA and RNase P RNA gene (rnpB). Representative positive samples from different farms were selected for sequencing ...

Prevalence and Molecular Analyses of Hemotrophic Mycoplasma spp. (Hemoplasmas) Detected in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon yesoensis) in Japan

Hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) are cell-wall deficient, epierythrocytic bacteria that cause infectious anemia in several mammalian species. The prevalence of hemoplasma species was examined by screening and species-specific PCR using blood samples collected from 51 sika deer in Hokkaido, Japan. Molecular analyses were performed for the 16S rRNA, 23S rRNA and RNase P RNA (rnpB) gene sequen...

Phylogenetic relationships and genotyping of the genus Streptococcus by sequence determination of the RNase P RNA gene, rnpB.

The rnpB gene is universally present in bacterial species and encodes the RNA subunit of endoribonuclease P. In this study, rnpB was sequenced in 50 type strains and 29 additional strains of the genus Streptococcus. Putative secondary-structure models and possible interactions in RNase P RNA molecules are discussed. Phylogenetic relationships were studied and Bayesian, maximum-parsimony and min...

Phylogenetic relationships and species differentiation of 39 Legionella species by sequence determination of the RNase P RNA gene rnpB.

The rnpB gene is ubiquitous in Bacteria, Archaea and Eucarya and encodes the RNA component of RNase P, an endoribonuclease P that consists of one RNA and one protein subunit (C5). In this study, partial rnpB genes were sequenced from 39 type strains and 16 additional strains of the genus Legionella. Models of the putative secondary structures of the RNase P RNA in the genus Legionella are propo...

Comparative Genomics and Phylogenomics of Hemotrophic Mycoplasmas

Hemotrophic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) are a group of animal pathogens of the Mollicutes class. Recently, the genomes of 8 hemoplasmas have been completely sequenced. The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of their genomic features and relationship to other Mycoplasma species. The genome structure and dynamics of hemoplasmas were analyzed by evaluating gene synteny, adaptive ev...
