A phylogenetic analysis of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato based on sequence information from the hbb gene, coding for a histone-like protein.

International journal of systematic bacteriology - 1 Jan 1997

Abstract excerpt

We describe a phylogenetic investigation of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, the causative agent of Lyme disease, based on a DNA sequence analysis of the hbb gene, which encodes protein HBb, a member of the family of histone-like proteins. Because of their intimate contact with the DNA molecule, these proteins are believed to be fairly conserved through evolution. In this study we proved that the hbb gene is...
