Outer Surface Protein B (Osp-B) of the Borrelia burgdorferi Spirochete Bacterium
| |||||||||||
Osp-B is an outer-surface protein molecule found in the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, a molecule essential for the survival of the bacterium. Since its primary function is to serve as the spirochete's microvillar attachment to the Ixodes scapularis midgut, it is constitutively expressed.
