Journal ArticleDOI
Proteolytic processing of the Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae cilium adhesin
Steven P. Djordjevic,Stuart J. Cordwell,Michael A. Djordjevic,Jody L. Wilton,F. Chris Minion +4 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the cilium adhesin is proteolytically processed on the surface, with processing is complex, with cleavage occurring at different frequencies within multiple sites, and is strain specific.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mhp493 (P216) is a proteolytically processed, cilium and heparin binding protein of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae
Jody L. Wilton,Cheryl Jenkins,Stuart J. Cordwell,Linda Falconer,F. Chris Minion,David C. Oneal,Michael A. Djordjevic,Angela Connolly,Idris Barchia,Mark J. Walker,Steven P. Djordjevic +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown here that Mhp493 (P216), a paralogue of the cilium adhesin P97 (Mhp183), is cleaved between amino acids 1040 and 1089 generating surface‐accessible, heparin‐binding proteins P120 and P85, which are recognized by serum antibodies elicited during infection by M. hyopneumoniae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reiterated repeat region variability in the ciliary adhesin gene of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae
TL;DR: Variability in the number of amino acid repeats in RR1 amongst strains of M. hyopneumoniae may influence ciliary binding, and two putative integrin binding sites were identified in the 94 kDa ciliary adhesin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two domains within the Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae cilium adhesin bind heparin
Cheryl Jenkins,Cheryl Jenkins,Jody L. Wilton,F. Chris Minion,Linda Falconer,Mark J. Walker,Steven P. Djordjevic +6 more
TL;DR: The ability of the cilium adhesin to bind heparin indicates that this molecule plays a multifunctional role in the adherence of M. hyopneumoniae to host respiratory surfaces and therefore has important implications with respect to the pathogenesis of this organism.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae contains a novel lipoyl domain arrangement.
Jake N. Matic,Jody L. Wilton,Rebecca J. Towers,Anthony L. Scarman,F. Chris Minion,Mark J. Walker,Steve P. Djordjevic +6 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesised that the lipoyl-binding domain of PdhD is performing the enzymatic function normally attributed to the PdhC lipoy lbinding domain in other organisms.
