DOI: 10.1111/mmi.14189
Abstract: Borrelia burgdorferi is a causative agent of Lyme disease and establishes long‐term infection in mammalian hosts. Persistence is promoted by the VlsE antigenic variation system, which generates combinatorial diversity of VlsE through unidirectional, segmental gene… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1009119
Abstract: Infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria are difficult to fight because these pathogens exclude or expel many clinical antibiotics and host defense molecules. However, mammals have evolved a substantial immune arsenal that weakens pathogen defenses, suggesting… read more here.
