HAMAP: Mycoplasma pneumoniae (strain ATCC 29342 / M129) complete proteome
General information

Species:  Mycoplasma pneumoniae (strain ATCC 29342 / M129)
Species code: MYCPN
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Tenericutes; Mollicutes; Mycoplasmataceae; Mycoplasma (TaxID: 272634) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Has an obligate parasitic lifestyle. Completely lacks a cell wall; it is surrounded only by a cytoplasmic membrane. The etiologic agent of primary atypical pneumonia, it has also been implicated in both upper and lower respiratory tract infections, including tracheobronchitis, bronchitis and bronchiolitis. Additionally, it is widely accepted that infection with this organism can result in a variety of extrapulmonary sequelae including septic arthritis, hemolytic anemia, dermatological, renal, central nervous system and cardiac complications. As a surface parasite, it attaches to the host's respiratory epithelium by means of a differentiated terminal structure, the attachment organelle. Cytadherence is mediated by the highly abundant P1 protein (adapted from PMID 16678382).
Properties: Presence of flagella: No
Human pathogen: Yes

Statistics: Number of MYCPN entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 687 (687 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 0 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
