Role of the Surface Lipoprotein BBA07 in the Enzootic Cycle of<i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i>
27 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme disease pathogen, dramatically alters its protein profile when it is transmitted between ticks and mammals. Several differentially expressed proteins have been shown to be critical for the enzootic cycle of B. burgdorferi. In this study, we demonstrated that expression of the surface lipoprotein-encoding gene bba07 is induced by an elevated temperature and a reduced pH during in...
