Analysis of the OspE Determinants Involved in Binding of Factor H and OspE-Targeting Antibodies Elicited during Borrelia burgdorferi Infection in Mice

Immune evasion by Lyme spirochetes is a multifactorial process involving numerous mechanisms. The OspE protein family undergoes antigenic variation during infection and binds factor H (fH) and possibly FHL-1/reconectin. In Borrelia burgdorferi B31MI, the OspE family consists of three paralogs: BBL39...
