The Role of BbLDH in Borrelia burgdorferi Lyme disease, the most reported tick-borne illness in the United States and Europe, is primarily caused by the bacterium B. burgdorferi. One of the intriguing ...

burgdorferi does not use thiamin as a cofactor and instead relies on lactate dehydrogenase (BbLDH) to convert pyruvate to lactate to balance the NADH/NAD+ ratio, which has not been reported in any ...
