Original Abstract
Lyme borreliosis is one of the most common tick-borne infections, for which there is an extensive need to find a new drug. For this purpose our in silicodocking study was carried out to identify drug-likeness of chosen small molecules –potential borreliosis drugs. Its results revealed that BesA compound (C2 form) – a membrane fusion protein present in Borrelia burgdorferi, can play a significant role as a possible drug target compound and therefore it should be further examined in development of potential drugs for Lyme borreliosis treatment.
