Mutation of two Mycoplasma arthritidis surface lipoproteins with divergent functions in cytadherence.

Infection and immunity - 1 Dec 2008

Bird Daniel W, Graber Kelly, Knutson Allison, Washburn Leigh R

Abstract excerpt

Mycoplasma arthritidis is a natural pathogen of rats, causing an acute polyarthritis. Previous studies identified two membrane-bound lipoproteins, Maa1 and Maa2, thought to be associated with cytadherence of M. arthritidis strain 158p10p9. We have since confirmed that Maa1 is a major adhesin, although the role of Maa2 has proven more elusive. Both proteins were capable of eliciting protective immunity in rats...
