Correlation between plasmid content and infectivity in Borrelia burgdorferi.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 5 Dec 2000

Purser J E, Norris S J

Abstract excerpt

Infectivity-associated plasmids were identified in Borrelia burgdorferi B31 by using PCR to detect each of the plasmids in a panel of 19 clonal isolates. The clones exhibited high-, low-, and intermediate-infectivity phenotypes based on their frequency of isolation from needle-inoculated C3H/HeN mice. Presence or absence of 21 of the 22 plasmids was determined in each of the clones by using PCR primers specific...
