<i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i> DnaA and the nucleoid-associated protein EbfC coordinate expression of the <i>dnaX-ebfC</i> operon

2022-10-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Borrelia burgdorferi , the spirochete agent of Lyme disease, has evolved within a consistent infectious cycle between tick and vertebrate hosts. The transmission of the pathogen from tick to vertebrate is characterized by rapid replication and a change in the outer surface protein profile. EbfC, a highly conserved nucleoid-associated protein, binds throughout the borrelial genome affecting expre...
