Characterization and genomic analysis of the Lyme disease spirochete bacteriophage ϕBB-1

2024-01-09

Abstract excerpt

Lyme disease is a tick-borne infection caused by the spirochete Borrelia ( Borreliella ) burgdorferi . Borrelia species have highly fragmented genomes composed of a linear chromosome and a constellation of linear and circular plasmids some of which are required throughout the enzootic cycle. Included in this plasmid repertoire by almost all Lyme disease spirochetes are the 32-kb circular plasmid cp32 prophages...
