The whole viable Mycoplasma gallisepticum (strain TT) organisms were found to possess
neuraminidase activity with ap H optimum of 5.8 on substrates such as human transferrin,
human α1-glycoprotein, and rabbit serum. The enzyme operated optimally at p H 4.5 when
N-acetylneuraminyl-lactose was used as the test substrate.
