Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia (CBPP) is a severe respiratory disease caused byMycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides (Mmm) which is widespread in Africa. The capsule polysaccharide (CPS) of Mmm is one of the few identified virulence determinants. In a previous study, immunization of mice against...

Capsular polysaccharide from Mycoplasma mycoides subsp.mycoides shows potential for protection against Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia
Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides (Mmm) is the causative agent of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP), a devastating respiratory disease mainly affecting cattle in sub-Saharan Africa. The current vaccines are based on live-attenuated Mmmstrains and present problems with temperature stabili...

Recombinant Mycoplasma mycoides proteins elicit protective immune responses against contagious bovine pleuropneumonia
The current control method for contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) in Africa is vaccination with a live, attenuated strain of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides(Mmm). However, this method is not very efficient and often causes serious adverse reactions. Several studies have attempted to ind...
