The decrease in FlaA observed in a flaB mutant of Borrelia burgdorferi occurs posttranscriptionally.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jun 2004

Motaleb M A, Sal Melanie S, Charon Nyles W

Abstract excerpt

The Lyme disease bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi is a motile spirochete with a flat-wave morphology. The periplasmic flagella, which are situated between the outer membrane sheath and cell cylinder, are essential for both the cell's wavy shape and motility. Here we focus on the structure and regulation of its periplasmic flagella. Previous studies have suggested that the periplasmic flagella consist of a polymer...
