Perpetuation of Borreliae [PDF]
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2021 With one exception (epidemic relapsing fever), borreliae are obligately maintained in nature by ticks. Although some Borrelia spp. may be vertically transmitted to subsequent generations of ticks, most require amplification by a vertebrate host because inheritance is not stable. Enzootic cycles of borreliae have been found globally; those receiving the

Borreliae Part 2: Borrelia Relapsing Fever Group and Unclassified Borrelia [PDF]
Biology, 2021 Borreliae of the relapsing fever group (RFG) are heterogenous and can be divided mainly into three groups according to vectors, namely the soft-tick-borne relapsing fever (STBRF) Borreliae, the hard-tick-borne relapsing fever (HTBRF) Borreliae, the louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF) Borreliae, and the avian relapsing fever ones.

Acylated proteins in Borrelia hermsii, Borrelia parkeri, Borrelia anserina, and Borrelia coriaceae [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1993 Borrelia hermsii, Borrelia parkeri, Borrelia anserina, and Borrelia coriaceae produced several lipoproteins identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorography of bacteria grown in [3H]palmitate. Five major acylated proteins were demonstrated by sequential alkaline and acid hydrolysis.

Dog tick (Rhipecephalus) causing Lyme disease in an adult human
Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2022 Lyme disease is a tick-borne multisystem disorder transmitted by the family of Ixodes and caused by a spirochete, Borrelia. An early manifestation of the disease presents with skin lesions typically called Erythema chronicum migrans (ECM).

Spirochetal Lipoproteins and Immune Evasion. [PDF]
, 2017 Spirochetes are a major threat to public health. However, the exact pathogenesis of spirochetal diseases remains unclear. Spirochetes express lipoproteins that often determine the cross talk between the host and spirochetes.
