<i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i> Lacking DbpBA Exhibits an Early Survival Defect during Experimental Infection

23 Sept 2008

Abstract excerpt

Several Borrelia burgdorferi genes induced under mammalian host conditions have been purported to be important in Lyme disease pathogenesis based on their binding to host structures. These genes include the dbpBA locus, whose products bind host decorin and glycosoaminoglycans. Recently, the dbpBA genes were reported to be involved in borrelial infectivity. Here we extended the previous observations by using...
