Polyploidy, regular patterning of genome copies, and unusual control of DNA partitioning in the Lyme disease spirochete

C. N. Takacs, J. Wachter, Y. Xiang, X. Karaboja, R. Zhongqing, M. Scott, M. R. Stoner, I. Irnov, N. Jannetty, P. A. Rosa, X. Wang, C. Jacobs-Wagner

This study shows that Borrelia burgdorferi is polyploid in culture and ticks, with regular genome copy spacing controlled by ParA/ParZ and ParB/SMC systems.
