Background

Borrelia burgdorferi is a spirochete and the cause of Lyme disease, a tick transmitted illness of humans and animals. B. burgdorferi may persist in humans and animals for months or years following initial infection, despite a robust humoral immune response. B. burgdorferi resembles other spirochetes in that it is a highly specialized, motile, two-membrane, spiral shaped bacteria which lives primarily as an extracellular pathogen. B. burgdorferi has an unusual genome compared with other eubacteria which includes a linear chromosome approximately one megabase in size and numerous linear and circular plasmids.

1. Can you please tell me the immunogen used to generate the Borrelia Burgdorferi antibody (BGN/F44/42)?
   • The immunogen was whole native Borrelia burgdorferi, not one specific protein. This antibody set is a mixture of clones that were co-generated in ascites, and then purified via protein A. This product recognizes a band in Western Blot with an apparent molecular weight of 30-31 kDa.
