Pleiotropic effects of inactivating a carboxyl-terminal protease, CtpA, in Borrelia burgdorferi.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2004

Ostberg Yngve, Carroll James A, Pinne Marija, Krum Jonathan G, Rosa Patricia, Bergström Sven

Abstract excerpt

A gene encoding a putative carboxyl-terminal protease (CtpA), an unusual type of protease, is present in the Borrelia burgdorferi B31 genome. The B. burgdorferi CtpA amino acid sequence exhibits similarities to the sequences of the CtpA enzymes of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 and higher plants and also exhibits similarities to the sequences of putative CtpA proteins in other bacterial...
