Delineating the Requirement for the Borrelia burgdorferi Virulence Factor OspC in the Mammalian Host

We previously demonstrated that outer surface protein C (OspC) of Borrelia burgdorferi is essential for establishing mammalian infection. However, the role of OspC in mammalian infection is unknown. Here, we report experiments designed to distinguish between two models of OspC function in the mammal...
