The present disclosure relates to aptamers, polynucleotides, and nuclei acid molecules, which include a polynucleotide sequence capable of specifically binding polypeptides participating in M. hyopneumoniae infection. Also provided are methods of using nucleic acid molecules, polynucleotides and synthetic antibodies directed there against for detection, treating and neutralization of M. hyopneumoniae infection.

The present invention aims at providing a specific antibody that can simply and rapidly detect Mycoplasma pneumoniae which is a causative bacterium of mycoplasma pneumonia, with high sensitivity, and also an immunological detection method and a kit containing the same antibody. The present invention makes it possible to diagnose infection with Mycoplasma pneumoniae more rapidly and specifically than the conventional method, by producing an antibody recognizing a specific epitope of P30 protein of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and performing an immunological detection using the antibody. Also, the present invention enables easy and rapid detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and diagnosis of infection with the same at a hospital or the like without need of specialized instruments or skilled techniques.

[Problem] An object of the present invention is to provide a detection marker that can simply and rapidly detect Mycoplasma pneumoniae, which is a pathogen of mycoplasma pneumonia, at a high sensitivity, a specific antibody against the marker, and also an immunological detection method and a kit containing the antibody. [Solution] Infection with Mycoplasma pneumoniae can be rapidly and specifically diagnosed by producing an antibody specifically reactive to P30 protein of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and performing an immunological assay using the P30 protein as a detection marker. The present invention enables easy and rapid detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and diagnosis of infection with the bacteria at a hospital or the like without need of specialized instruments or skilled techniques.

The present invention provides a novel glyceroglycolipid produced by Mycoplasma pneumoniae. The glyceroglycolipid can be used as a diagnostic marker for a disease caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

Mycoplasma bovis infection in cattle is a major production limiting disease of cows and calves. M. bovis can cause a range of conditions in cattle. including mastitis in dairy cows. arthritis in cows and calves. pneumonia in calves, and various other diseases including late-term abortion. The present invention provides methods for detecting multiple anti-M. bovis antibodies in a single multiplex immunoassay.
