Borrelia burgdorferi PlzA is a cyclic-di-GMP dependent DNA- and RNA-binding protein

N. Jusufovic, A. C. Krusenstjerna, C. Savage, T. C. Saylor, C. A. Brissette, W. R. Zueckert, P. Schlax, M. A. R. MOTALEB, B. Stevenson

This study identifies PlzA as a cyclic-di-GMP-dependent DNA and RNA-binding protein in Borrelia burgdorferi, showing that nucleic acid binding requires c-di-GMP and involves specific domain interactions.

Borrelia burgdorferi DnaA and the nucleoid-associated protein EbfC coordinate expression of the dnaX-ebfC operon

A. C. Krusenstjerna, T. C. Saylor, W. K. Arnold, J. S. Tucker, B. Stevenson

This study shows that DnaA and EbfC interact at the dnaX-ebfC 5 UTR to regulate operon expression, linking replication rate to virulence factor expression in Borrelia burgdorferi.
