We report the complete genome sequence of Mycoplasma parvum strain Indiana. Its circular chromosome is 564,395 bp, which is smaller than that of Mycoplasma genitalium, which was previously considered the smallest member of the Mollicutes. Comparative analyses of the genomes of M. parvum and Mycoplasma suis will provide novel insights into the molecular basis of their virulence.
我们报告了微小支原体印第安纳菌株的全基因组序列。其环状染色体为564,395碱基对,比生殖支原体的染色体小,生殖支原体此前被认为是柔膜菌纲中最小的成员。对微小支原体和猪支原体基因组的比较分析将为它们毒力的分子基础提供新的见解。
