Example sentences for: mycoplasma

How can you use “mycoplasma” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

For example, the smallest genome, from Mycoplasma genitalium (0.
0. Of 675 species with at least 20 protein-coding sequences tabulated from nuclear DNA, we excluded 53 eukaryotes and 17 bacteria on the grounds that they had alternative genetic codes (for example, Tetrahymena and Mycoplasma ), or had introns accidentally tabulated in the database as part of the coding sequence (for example, Pongo and Homo ). These were detected as an excess of termination codons greater than 1 per 20 coding sequences (that is, at least 5% more stop codons than genes).
Cultures were routinely tested for Mycoplasma contamination by Specialty Laboratories (Santa Monica, CA) and were consistently negative.
Figure 1cshows InterPro family distributions in Mycoplasma genitalium, Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Drosophila melanogaster ; other distributions from many of the recently sequenced genomes are available from our website [ 20].
Although closely related organisms tend to have similar genome compositions, there are considerable exceptions (such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae versus M. genitalium ). If distantly related species with similar GC contents have the same amino-acid or codon usages, we can conclude that phylogenetic constraints are relatively unimportant, and perhaps that genomes are at or near equilibrium with respect to mutation and selection (otherwise, different unrelated species would not attain the same amino-acid composition predicted from the nucleotide composition).
