BBCRASP-1 FROM BORRELIA BURGDORFERI
Overview
Borrelia burgdorferi, a spirochete transmitted to human hosts during, feeding of infected Ixodes ticks, is the causative agent of Lyme disease., Serum-resistant B. burgdorferi strains cause a chronic, multisystemic form, of the disease and bind complement factor H (FH) and FH-like protein 1, (FHL-1) on the spirochete surface. Here we report the atomic structure for, the key FHL-1- and FH-binding protein BbCRASP-1 and reveal a homodimer, that presents a novel target for drug design.
