Role of the BBA64 locus of Borrelia burgdorferi in early stages of infectivity in a murine model of Lyme disease.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jan 2008

Maruskova Mahulena, Esteve-Gassent M Dolores, Sexton Valerie L, Seshu J

Abstract excerpt

Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease, undergoes rapid adaptive gene expression in response to environmental signals encountered during different stages of its life cycle in the arthropod vector or the mammalian host. Among all the plasmid-encoded genes of B. burgdorferi, several linear plasmid 54 (lp54)-encoded open reading frames (ORFs) exhibit the greatest differential expression in...
