Detection of genetic diversity in linear plasmids 28-3 and 36 in Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto isolates by subtractive hybridization.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Dec 2003

Xu Yun, Bruno John F, Luft Benjamin J

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies based on sequence divergence in the ospC gene have identified limited subpopulations of B. burgdorferi associated with invasive human disease. Spirochetes with certain OspC types never cause human disease, while some others cause local infection at the primary skin site but do not hematogenously disseminate. Only four OspC genotypes (A, B, I and K) are responsible for disseminated disease and are...
