Effects of Inosine-5′-monophosphate Dehydrogenase (IMPDH/GuaB) Inhibitors on Borrelia burgdorferi Growth in Standard and Modified Culture Conditions

Microorganisms
Borrelia burgdorferi’s inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH, GuaB encoded by the guaB gene) is a potential therapeutic target. GuaB is necessary for B. burgdorferi replication in mammalian hosts but not in standard laboratory culture conditions.
