Decorin-Binding Protein of<i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i>Is Encoded within a Two-Gene Operon and Is Protective in the Murine Model of Lyme Borreliosis
1 Jun 1998
Abstract excerpt
Isolated outer membranes of Borrelia burgdorferi were used in immunoblotting experiments with sera from immune mice to identify new putative Lyme disease vaccine candidates. One immunoreactive polypeptide migrated on polyacrylamide gels just proximal to outer surface protein C and comigrated with [3H]palmitate-labeled polypeptides. A degenerate oligonucleotide primer based upon internal amino acid sequence...
