Lyme disease genome decoded opens path to tests and vaccines
Biologists sequence Borrelia burgdorferi genome revealing about 1.44 million base pairs with a linear chromosome and plasmids. The study, led by Clare M Fraser at the Institute for Genomic Research, promises new diagnostics and therapeutics though many gene functions remain unclear. Experts say full DNA access offers starting points for second generation vaccines and better understanding of the bacterium's life cycle in mice, deer, dogs, and humans.
