Data on nucleoid-associated proteins isolated from Mycoplasma gallisepticum after intracellular infection.

ABSTRACT: Mycoplasma gallisepticum (M. gallisepticum) belongs to the class of Mollicutes. It causes chronic respiratory disease in avian species. It is characterized by lack of cell wall and reduced genome size. As a result of genome reduction, M. gallisepticum has a limited variety of DNA-binding proteins (DBP) and transcription factors. Consequently, the diversity of DNA-binding proteins and transcription factors (TF) in M. gallisepticum is limited in comparison with related bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis. Studies have shown, however, that mycoplasmas demonstrate a wide range of differential expression of genes in response to various stress factors, which promotes effective adaptation to unfavorable conditions. We assume that in the case of mycoplasmas, which are ch
