Lyme borreliosis is challenging to diagnose, particularly in its early stages. Aptamers targeting CspZ from Borrelia, selected through cross-over SELEX, bind both the recombinant protein and ...

As spring dawns and the hiking season begins, people may increasingly encounter ticks that latch onto ankles and dig into the skin. While most tick bites are harmless, some can spread bacterial ...

Understanding BbLDH and Its Role in Lyme Disease Researchers have identified BbLDH as a critical component for the survival and infectivity of Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacteria responsible for Lyme ...

In Northern California, the proportion of ticks infected with the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi was the same in shrubland along beaches as in woodland habitats. A series of rodent experiments showed ...

Our research aims to translate molecular mechanistic findings on BRICHOS chaperones to treatment of Alzheimer´s disease patients. We are also interested in how BRICHOS can transport biologics over the ...
