Mol Cell Probes
. 2002 May;
16(2):153-8.
PMID: 12030765
Putative integration host factor (IHF) binding sites are frequently being identified in Neisseria gene sequences on the basis of similarity to a degenerate Escherichia coli -derived consensus binding sequence. In...

. 2001 Jul;
183(16):4771-8.
PMID: 11466280
We previously described a bacteriophage of the Lyme disease agent Borrelia burgdorferi designated phiBB-1. This phage packages the host complement of the 32-kb circular plasmids (cp32s), a group of homologous...

J Mol Microbiol Biotechnol
. 2000 Nov;
2(4):365-73.
PMID: 11075907
Historically, a number of bacteriophage-like particles have been observed in association with members of the bacterial order Spirochetales, the spirochetes. In the last decade, several spirochete bacteriophages have been isolated...

PMID: 11073925
The conserved cp32 plasmid family of Borrelia burgdorferi was recently shown to be packaged into a bacteriophage particle (C. H. Eggers and D. S. Samuels, J. Bacteriol. 181:7308-7313, 1999). This...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2000 Sep;
97(20):10899-904.
PMID: 10995478
Bacterial shape usually is dictated by the peptidoglycan layer of the cell wall. In this paper, we show that the morphology of the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi is the...

J Bacteriol
. 2000 Mar;
182(7):2048-51.
PMID: 10715016
The C-terminal domain of the A subunit of DNA gyrase, which we term Gac, is naturally synthesized in Borrelia burgdorferi as an abundant DNA-binding protein. Full-length GyrA, which includes the...

J Bacteriol
. 1999 Nov;
181(23):7308-13.
PMID: 10572135
We have recovered a DNase-protected, chloroform-resistant molecule of DNA from the cell-free supernatant of a Borrelia burgdorferi culture. The DNA is a 32-kb double-stranded linear molecule that is derived from...

EMBO J
. 1999 Sep;
18(17):4875-81.
PMID: 10469665
We have identified a 34 kDa DNA-binding protein with an HU-like activity in the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi. The 34 kDa protein is translated from an abundant transcript initiated...

PMID: 9700051
Eukaryotic topoisomerase I polypeptides can be partitioned into four structural domains. The function of the N-terminal domain, which is a target for serine-specific phosphorylation, has not been fully defined. The...
