Mycoplasma capricolum
Mycoplasma capricolum is a species of Mycoplasma bacteria. It is primarily a pathogen of goats, but has also been found in sheep and cows. The species requires external sources of cholesterol to grow or survive, but the uptaken fatty acid is not used as a substrate for energy production but rather for phospholipid synthesis instead.
It causes a disease in goats called contagious caprine pleuropneumonia.
