Polymerase chain reaction analyses identify two distinct classes of Borrelia burgdorferi

1 Mar 1991

Abstract excerpt

We sequenced homologous chromosomal loci from several North American and European isolates of the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, as well as from the relapsing fever spirochete Borrelia hermsii. Inter- and intraspecies sequence comparisons permitted the design of B. burgdorferi-specific polymerase chain reaction primers that detected all strains tested (n = 31) from diverse geographical and...
