Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the variation of OspC gene in two Chinese isolates of Borrelia burgdorferi. METHODS: PCR technique was used to amplify the OspC gene from the whole cellular DNA of isolates BT01 and BJ-9011. The amplified products were inserted into plasmid pGEM-3ZF(+) and sequenced. RESULTS: Except the signal peptide, the OspC genes of the two isolates BT01 and BJ-9011 were 579 bp and 576 bp which...
