Cross-hybridization between the cytadhesin genes of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Mycoplasma genitalium and genomic DNA of Mycoplasma gallisepticum

Microbial Pathogenesis
S F Dallo, J B Baseman

Abstract

Immunological cross-reactivity was observed between the cytadhesin proteins of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Mycoplasma genitalium and a 155 kDa protein of Mycoplasma gallisepticum. Furthermore, the cytadhesin genes of M. pneumoniae and M. genitalium were used to demonstrate homology with M. gallisepticum genomic DNA under low stringency conditions suggesting that a family of adhesin-related genes exists among these pathogenic mycoplasmas.
