Introduction

After blasting for the nucleotide sequences, we found that the gene that responsible to the sequences is Mycoplasma pneumoniae adhesin protein (P30) gene. It was found in Mycoplasma pneumonia. The gene coded for adhensin protein P30 which is required for cytoadherence and associated with cell development of M.pneumoniae. Loss of P30 caused a mutation and the morphological abnormalities like change in cell shape. It indicates P30 plays a role in mycoplasma cell development and support adhesin P1’s receptor-binding function that enhance the attachment to host cells.
