Epigenetic responses in <i>Borrelia</i> -infected Ixodes <i>scapularis</i> ticks: Over-expression of euchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 2 and no change in DNA methylation

2024-10-27

Abstract excerpt

Borrelia burgdorferi , a tick-vectored spirochete bacteria best known for causing Lyme disease, has been found to induce physiological and behavioural changes in its tick vector that can increase tick fitness and its ability to transmit the bacteria. The mechanism by which this bacterium modulates these changes remains unknown. Epigenetics plays a central role in transducing external and internal microbiome enviro...
