摘要
A DNA library of strain HB19 from Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, an agent of Lyme borreliosis, was constructed in the cosmid pLA2917. Genes involved in initiation of DNA replication and resolution of recombination intermediates (Holliday junctions) were found on a 23-kbp region up to 0.7 kbp of the “left” extremity of the linear chromosome in representative species of B. burgdorferi sensu lato.
