The long strange trip of Borrelia burgdorferi outer‐surface protein C

9 Apr 2008

Abstract excerpt

Borrelia burgdorferi must adapt physiologically to two markedly different host milieus and efficiently transit between its mammalian host and arthropod vector during tick feeding. Differential production of lipoproteins is essential for spirochaetes to survive, multiply and migrate within both hosts. Outer-surface protein C (OspC), which is induced during the blood meal, is critical for transmission of Lyme...
