Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract The Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia burgdorferi contains a highly reduced genome lacking many primary metabolic pathways. However, B. burgdorferi retains the mevalonate pathway that synthesizes isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP), the precursor to the peptidoglycan carrier lipid.

Multiplex PCR to Diagnose Gastrointestinal Infections: Key Limitations in Interpretation
United European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 14, Issue 7, September 2026.ABSTRACT Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) panels are increasingly used for the evaluation of acute diarrhea, providing rapid and sensitive detection of a broad range of enteric pathogens. However, their widespread adoption has created important interpretive challenges for clinicians.
