Borrelia burgdorferi tolerates alteration to P66 porin function in a murine infectivity model

Borrelia burgdorferi exists in a complex enzootic life cycle requiring differential gene regulation. P66, a porin and adhesin, is upregulated and essential during mammalian infection, but is not produced or required within the tick vector. We sought to determine whether the porin function of P66 is...
