Segregation Lag in Polyploid Cells of the Pathogen Genus Borrelia: Implications for Antigenic Variation


Relapsing fever agents like Borrelia hermsii undergo multiphasic antigenic variation that is attributable to spontaneous DNA non-reciprocal transpositions at a particular locus in the genome. This genetic switch results in a new protein being expressed on the cell surface, allowing cells with that p...
