Abstract
A 20,115-nt region of theMycoplasma gallisepticum A5959 genome was sequenced (GenBank accession no. AF036708). The region contains therrn23-5 and S10 operons, the lactate dehydrogenase gene, and two open reading frames (ORF293 and ORF129/ORF171) coding for proteins of unknown function. Therrn23-5 operon includes genes for 23S and 5S rRNAs. The S10 operon includes genes for 20 ribosomal proteins, Sec Y transport protein, adenylate kinase, and methionine aminopeptidase, and lacks theinfA-rpl36-rps13-rpoA-rpl17 genes found in the S10 operon ofM. genitalium, M. pneumoniae, andBacillus subtilis. The product ofM. gallisepticum ldh is equally similar to the corresponding proteins of mycoplasmata andB. subtilis but contains only a part of the motif characteristic of the active center of lactate dehydrogenases. The chromosome region adjacent to the sequenced one containsuvrA,nrdE,nrdF, andptsI.
