Specifications
Target Information
Borreliella burgdorferi decorin-binding protein A (dbpA) is a surface protein that plays a crucial role in the bacterium's ability to bind to host cells. It acts as an adhesin, allowing the bacterium to attach to decorin, a collagen-associated proteoglycan, which facilitates its adherence to fibroblasts, epithelial, and endothelial cells. In veterinary medicine, DbpA is used as an antigen in serological tests to detect antibodies in animals that have been exposed to the bacterium, aiding in the diagnosis of Lyme disease. Additionally, DbpA is a promising candidate for vaccine development due to its ability to elicit a strong immune response and protect against infection.
