Fig 8.

Heatmap depicts RFU levels across cohorts: single erythema migrans, multiple erythema migrans, acute lyme neuroborreliosis, Lyme arthritis, and healthy controls. Two asterisks highlighting specific rows on the left.

IgG reactivity to VlsE peptides in the five sample types. The Y axis indicates the relative amino acid coordinates of the peptides within the full-length VlsE protein. Reactivity is shown in yellow. For clarity, only peptides with reactivity above 10,000 RFU are shown. Samples are indicated on the X axis. To illustrate baseline reactivity, ten random control samples were selected and shown on the right. The asterisks indicate the regions encompassing the peptides within aa 18–38 (*) and the C6 (**). ^ - includes only confirmed Lyme disease cases.
