Decoding Mycoplasma Nucleases: Biological Functions and Pathogenesis by Xinchao Yi, Ying Huang, Xinru Li, Hao Xu, Chang Liu, Chao Li, Qianrui Zeng, Haodang Luo, Zufeng Ye, Jun He, Xiaoxing You

“…Certain nucleases, either membrane-bound or secreted, not only contribute to the growth of mycoplasmas but also serve as key virulence factors due to their unique spatial structures and physiological activity. The pathogenesis includes, but is not limited to, degradation of host DNA and RNA, leading to disruptions of nucleic acid metabolism and the induction of host cell apoptosis; degradation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), allowing escape from neutrophil-mediated killing; and upregulation of inflammatory molecules to modulate the immune response of the host. …”
