name
descriptionThe DNA amplification target is a gene encoding glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase (GlpQ), which is specific to the Borrelia species in the relapsing fever group. This gene is not found in the Borrelia species that cause Lyme disease. Melting curve analysis is then used to identify the B. miyamotoi organism. A positive result is consistent with active or recent infection. B. miyamotoi infections of the central nervous system are associated with the symptoms and signs of meningoencephalitis.
