Pollack J
Trends Microbiol . 2001 Apr; 9(4):169-75. PMID: 11286881
Examination of genomic or enzymatic activity data alone neither provides a complete picture of metabolic function or potential nor confidently reveals sites amenable to inhibition. Furthermore, in some cases, gene...

Wasinger V, Pollack J, Humphery-Smith I
Eur J Biochem . 2000 Mar; 267(6):1571-82. PMID: 10712586
Mycoplasma genitalium is the smallest member of the class Mollicutes, with a genome size of 580 kb. It has the potential to express 480 gene products, and is therefore considered...

Pollack J
Trends Microbiol . 1997 Nov; 5(10):413-9. PMID: 9351179
Although function can be assigned to genome sequence by homology at a macroscopic level, this can be misleading in the absence of data on enzyme activities. Together, such data can...

Cordwell S, Basseal D, Pollack J, Humphery-Smith I
Gene . 1997 Aug; 195(2):113-20. PMID: 9305754
The malate (MDH) and lactate (LDH) dehydrogenases belong to the homologous class of 2-ketoacid dehydrogenases. The specificity for their respective substrates depends on residues differing at two or three regions...

Pollack J, Williams M, McElhaney R
Crit Rev Microbiol . 1997 Jan; 23(4):269-354. PMID: 9439886
Mollicutes or mycoplasmas are a class of wall-less bacteria descended from low G + C% Gram-positive bacteria. Some are exceedingly small, about 0.2 micron in diameter, and are examples of...

Pollack J, Williams M, BANZON J, Jones M, Harvey L, Tully J
Int J Syst Bacteriol . 1996 Oct; 46(4):885-90. PMID: 8863414
Cytoplasmic fractions from species of the Mollicutes genera Entomoplasma, Mesoplasma, Mycoplasma, and Acholeplasma were assayed for NADH oxidase (NADH ox), ATP- and PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase (PFK), ATP- and PPi-dependent deoxyguanosine kinase...

Pollack J, BANZON J, DONELSON K, Tully J, DAVIS Jr J, Hackett K, et al.
Int J Syst Bacteriol . 1996 Oct; 46(4):881-4. PMID: 8863413
We tested the ability of 62 growing strains belonging to the class Mollicutes to reduce the redox indicator and free-radical generator 1,1'-dibenzyl-4,4'-bipyridinium dichloride (benzyl viologen [BV]) to a blue-violet-purple color....

Konai M, Hackett K, Williamson D, Lipa J, Pollack J, Gasparich G, et al.
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1996 Sep; 62(9):3453-8. PMID: 16535407
In North America, the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata, is often infected with the host-specific, gut-inhabiting Colorado potato beetle spiroplasma (CPBS). CPBS is apparently a commensal, but it may be...
