- the spirochete Bb infects the host animal following a bite by a tick
- the relationship between belonging to a group and a specific pathology developed during more advanced stages of the disease is an important concept for the clinician. He will adapt his medication (type of antibiotic, dosage, duration of treatment) based on different results that he will have garnered during the analysis of symptoms and the biochemical study of the different biological fluids collected.
- the rapid, specific and reliable detection of the group of Bb infecting the patient at early stages of the disease will give a valuable indication to the clinician as to the type of evolution which he can expect if the medication does not have the desired effects.
- This diagnostic response will allow the clinician to adapt his treatment in order to avoid progression of the disease to more worrying stages from a clinical point of view (neurological and cardiac damage, chronicity of the disease).
- the use of our detection system based on original molecular probes and / or primers, specific to each of the groups of Bb strains, makes it possible to meet this objective.
- An epidemiological study of Lyme disease has two aspects: one, includes a study of the vector of the disease, Ixodes ricinus; the other includes the analysis of reservoir animals (wild and domestic).
- the vector of this disease is a mite (ixodes ricinus) which develops in undergrowth with high moisture content in three stages: larva, nymph and adult.
- Ixodes ricinus carries out a blood meal during which it can become infected if it is in contact with an animal contaminated with Bb.
- the wild host animal, par excellence, of Bb is the deer due to the superposition of the biotope of the deer to that of the tick. Nevertheless, the host wild animals, potential reservoirs of the disease, are very diverse.
- rodents can be rodents (field rat, hare, rabbit, ...), birds (blackbird, sparrow, ...), swine (wild boar), deer (roe deer, fallow deer, deer) or canids (wolf, fox).
- Vaccination of patients living in geographic regions with a high Bb epidemic or of patients who by their activity (gamekeeper, forest ranger, farmer, walker) rub shoulders with these regions constitutes the prophylactic method making it possible to avoid painful clinical signs and cripples associated with Lyme disease.
- a number of patients may escape the targeted protection from the vaccine. It is therefore interesting to follow the effectiveness of the vaccines proposed by the detection of Bb in vaccinated patients with clinical signs associated with Lyme disease.
- the detection method as we propose it, based on molecular hybridization between the target DNA and a probe, or an original pair of primers, specific to Bb makes it possible to ensure this type of objective.
- a vaccine The validity of a vaccine is determined by its protective power against the target pathogen.
- the vaccine can be developed by trying to establish immunity against the surface glycoprotein OspA.
- a good knowledge of the sequence of this gene from a large number of different strains belonging to different groups helps in the construction of such a type of vaccine.
- a number of authors have indicated variability in the OspA gene. The reason for this variability is not yet known.
- One of the aims of the present invention is to provide sequences common to all the groups of Bb strains, which can be used either as primers during PCR reactions, or as capture probe in a hybridization test on solid support where DNA target is "sandwiched" between this capture probe and a revelation probe, either as revelation probes in this hybridization test of the "sandwich” type or in a direct detection test.
- sequence comparison programs (“Pileup” and “Pretty”) distributed by the Genetics Computer Groups, Inc. (University Research Park, 575 Science Drive, Suite B, Madison, Wisconsin 53711, USA) makes it possible to characterize this sequence type.
- the computer program “Pileup” allows the alignment of more than 300 sequences whose length can reach 5,000 nucleotides. This program is derived from a progressive alignment method developed by Feng and Doolittle [9].
- the "Pretty” program leads to the alignment of the sequences studied and to the creation of a "consensus” sequence from this alignment.
- the oligonucleotide sequences which can be used as primers common to all the groups of Bb strains, the length of these primers, their semi-hybridization temperature (Tm) and their position relative to the coding sequence of the OspA gene of the B31 strain are presented in Table 3 below.
- the sequence of these oligomers, oriented from the 5 ′ end to the 3 ′ end, is located on the strand coding for the primer OspApd; it is located on the strand not coding for the primer OspApc2.
- the OspApc2 oligomer sequence is presented in reverse complementary mode to the sequence located on the coding strand.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide nucleotide sequences specific to each group of Bb strains, which can be used either as primers during a genetic amplification reaction (PCR), or as a revelation or capture probe in a sandwich-type hybridization test or in a direct detection test.

- the sequences of the oligomers BbGI2, BbGII2 and BbGIII2 are presented in reverse complementary mode to the sequence located on the coding strand.
- sequences of these group-specific probes or primers have 100% homology to the known sequences of the OspA gene of the target groups of Bb strains. This high percentage of homology guarantees highly specific hybridizations or amplifications to the different groups of Bb strains .

- ZQ1 group II
- Acal group III
- the membrane was pre-hybridized and hybridized according to the protocol presented by the Tropix Company (Tropix Inc., 47 Wiggins Avenue, Bedford, Massachussets 01730, USA). This protocol includes an incubation of the membrane for 1 hour at a temperature of 37 ° C. in a hybridization solution (1 mM EDTA, 7% (PN) SDS, 0.25 M disodium phosphate, pH 7.2, 1% l- Block TM). The membrane is then hybridized in this solution for 1 night at a temperature of 42 ° C in the presence of the Bb23bio probe at a concentration of 50 ng per ml of hybridization solution.
- the Bb23bio probe was chemically modified by the addition of a molecule, for example, biotin, having an affinity for a molecular complex consisting of an enzymatic part, for example, alkaline phosphatase.
- the membrane was washed successively with solutions composed of either 2 * SSC / SDS 1% (0.3 M Sodium citrate / 0.03 M Sodium chloride / 1% sodium dodecylsulfate); either 1 * SSC / SDS 1%; and finally, of 1 * SSC.
- Each wash was carried out at a temperature of 42 ° C for 2 * 10 minutes.
- the molecular hybrids, target-probe DNA, were detected by chemiluminescence as described in the protocol for the use of the detection system "Southern-Light TM, Chemiluminescent Detection System” developed by the Tropix Company.
- Bb23bio probe recognizes the DNA of the 3 strains analyzed (B31, ZQ1 and Acal). The sensitivity of the system allows the detection of ⁇ 100 ng of DNA (equivalent to 100 10 6 copies of Borrelia burgdorferi DNA).
- the present invention also relates to oligonucleotide primers which can be used for the amplification of DNA fragments characteristic of all the strains of Bb.
- the primers OspApd and OspApc2 make it possible to amplify a DNA fragment of 282 base pairs characteristic of all the Bb strains.
- the genetic amplification reaction is carried out on 100 ng of DNA prepared according to the methods developed by Lefebvre et al. [9] and by Simpson et al. [10]. This PCR reaction is carried out in two phases:
- the first step allows the primers to hybridize to the target DNA; the second step carried out at 72 ° C. ensures the synthesis of a DNA complementary to the target DNA by the use of the polymerization enzyme, Taq polymerase; and finally, the third step allows the dissociation of the hybrids formed during the first two steps.
- the hybridization step was carried out at 60 ° C for 1 minute, that of polymerization was carried out at 72 ° C for 2 minutes and the hybrid dissociation step was performed at 94 ° C for 1 minute.
- the BbGI23 probe characteristic of group I strains specifically recognizes the DNA of strain B31 (group I strain) at the hybridization temperature of 45 ° C-50 ° C. At this hybridization temperature, the BbGI23 probe does not recognize DNA from the ZQ1 (group II) and Acal (group III) strains.
- the probe BbGII23 characteristic of the strains of group II specifically recognizes the DNA of the strain ZQ1 (strain of group II) at the hybridization temperature of 45 ° C-50 ° C. At this hybridization temperature, the BbGII23 probe does not recognize DNA from the B31 (group I) and Acal (group III) strains. It also follows from these experimental procedures that the BbGIII28 probe characteristic of group III strains specifically recognizes the DNA of the Acal strain (group III strain) at the hybridization temperature of 45 ° C-50 ° C. At this hybridization temperature, the BbGIII28 probe does not recognize the DNA from the B31 (group I) and ZQ1 (group II) strains. All of these results are shown in Table 6 below:
- BbGHI28 - + B. Genetic amplification (PCR) of DNA fragments specific to each of the known groups of Bb strains.
- the present invention also relates to oligonucleotide primers which can be used for the amplification of DNA fragments specific for each of the known groups of Bb strains.
- the primers BbGM and BbGI2 make it possible to amplify a DNA fragment of 544 base pairs ; the use of the oligomers BbGIH and BbGII2 allows an amplification of a DNA fragment of 345 base pairs; the pair of oligomers BbGIII3 and BbGIII2 generates, after amplification, a DNA fragment of 188 bp.
- the genetic amplification reaction is carried out on 100 ng of DNA, from different strains (B31, ZQ1 and Acal) representative of the different known groups of Bb strains.
- the DNA of these strains is prepared according to the methods described in example 2 point A.
- the PCR reaction was carried out in two phases as described in example 2 point B, with the difference that the hybridization temperature for the pair GI1 / GI2 was 69 ° C; for the GII1 / GII2 pair, this hybridization temperature was 68 ° C; and finally, for the GIII2 / GIII3 pair, the hybridization temperature was 68 ° C.
- Group III strains mainly cause acrode ⁇ matites.
- BbGI, BbGII, BbGIII and OspA respectively represent the pairs of primers BbGI1 / BbGI2 (specific for group I strains), BbGII1 / BbGII2 (specific for group primers) II), BbGIII1 / BbGIII2 (specific for group III primers) and OspApd / OspApc2 (characteristics of all Bb strains).
- the spirochete Bb settles very quickly in various target organs and tissues of the host (bladder, central nervous system, cartilaginous tissues) after having passed through the blood and the liver. It is therefore interesting to analyze, either by PCR or by a direct molecular or hybridization system of the "sandwich" type, the biological liquids preferentially infected with Bb.
