Heterologous Surface Display Reveals Conserved Complement Inhibition and Functional Diversification of Borrelia burgdorferi Elp Proteins

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 124, Issue 1, Page 77-90, July 2025.
A novel approach using the Pseudomonas syringae ice nucleation protein (INP) system to present Borrelia burgdorferi lipoproteins on the surface of Escherichia coli reveals conservation of complement inhibitory functions among uncharacterized OspE/F‐like leader peptide (Elp) proteins.

Permission to bite: White‐footed mice show no increased grooming response to tick infestation

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 2, Page 140-147, June 2025.
White‐footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) are one of the most frequently studied hosts of blacklegged ticks (Ixodes scapularis); however, interactions between white‐footed mice and ticks are not easily observed. This study aimed to quantify activity patterns in white‐footed mice and to assess their behavioral responses to parasitism by blacklegged ticks ...
