This paper identifies a conserved epitope on OspA that is broadly protective against multiple Borrelia genospecies, suggesting a basis for a universal Lyme disease vaccine.

This study shows that an Fc-silent variant of the monoclonal antibody LA-2 provides equivalent passive protection against Borrelia burgdorferi in mice, suggesting its protective mechanism is independent of complement.

This study uses a CRISPRi screen to identify genes in Salmonella Typhimurium that affect multicellular aggregate formation in response to Sal4 IgA, revealing a role for Type 1 Fimbriae in evading antibody-mediated agglutination.

This study determines the structure of a human monoclonal antibody in complex with OspC from Borreliella burgdorferi, revealing its epitope and interaction mechanism.

The paper identifies unique borreliacidal epitopes on OspA using VHHs and evaluates their reactivity across OspA serotypes.
