Description

Mycoplasma hypopneumoniae P146 is one of the bacteria's adhesin-like proteins involved in this cell adhesion process. M. hyopneumoniae must adhere to the tracheal epithelial cells of swine in order for the disease to become established. The characterization of molecules which bring about the adhesion process has been studied extensively to understand the virulence and pathogenesis of the disease caused by the organism. PMID: 17506969 The P146 gene is endoproteolytically processed, generating at least nine gene fragments. It contains 3 variable repeat regions and 2 variable coiled-coil regions. Since each P146 nucleotide sequence will vary in length due to the multiple repeat regions, the nucleotide sequence is translated to amino acids for P146 phylogenetic analysis. Variation in the gene encoding P146 adhesion-like molecule has been used to differentiate the M. hypopneumoniae strains. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
