Complete Sequence and Annotation of the Mycoplasma phocidae Strain 105(T) Genome

The genome of Mycoplasma phocidae strain 105(T) was analyzed in order to improve our understanding of its role in epidemic marine mammal mortalities. It was found to encode a suite of immunosuppressors that may enable evasion of host defenses and modulate susceptibility to viral coinfections or thei...

Sumario:The genome of Mycoplasma phocidae strain 105(T) was analyzed in order to improve our understanding of its role in epidemic marine mammal mortalities. It was found to encode a suite of immunosuppressors that may enable evasion of host defenses and modulate susceptibility to viral coinfections or their severity in seals.
