Intragenic recombination and a chimeric outer membrane protein in the relapsing fever agent Borrelia hermsii.

The spirochete Borrelia hermsii, a relapsing fever agent, evades the host's immune response through multiphasic antigenic variation. Antigen switching results from sequential expression of genes for serotype-specific outer membrane proteins known as variable major proteins (Vmp's); of the 25 serotyp...
