Navigating infection by pathogenic spirochetes: The host-bacteria interface at the atomic level. [PDF]
Abstract Pathogenic spirochetes bind and interact with various host structures and molecules throughout the course of infection. By utilizing their outer surface molecules, spirochetes can effectively modulate their dissemination, interact with immune system regulators, and select specific destination niches within the host.
