A mutation in gene MPN142 (orf6) was identified in the Mycoplasma pneumoniae cytadherence mutant III-4. MPN142 encodes virulence-specific proteins P90 and P40 (proteins B and C, respectively). Analysis of MPN142 in a cytadhering revertant and complementation using a recombinant wild-type allele confirmed the role of this mutation in the cytadherence defect.
在肺炎支原体细胞黏附突变体III - 4中鉴定出基因MPN142(orf6)的一个突变。MPN142编码毒力特异性蛋白P90和P40(分别为蛋白B和蛋白C)。对细胞黏附回复突变体中的MPN142进行分析,并使用重组野生型等位基因进行互补实验,证实了该突变在细胞黏附缺陷中的作用。
