Borrelia and Babesia peptides. (A) Borrelia peptides (160) identified in patients affected by acute Lyme borreliosis, post treatment Lyme disease syndrome or suspected of tick-borne illnesses. Proteins marked with a * were unambiguously (100% sequence identity with the pathogen with less than 90% homology with human and other organisms) attributed to the following species: Borrelia hermsii, Borrelia turicatae, Borrelia duttonii, Borrelia miyamotoi, Borrelia recurrentis. Unmarked proteins were attributed to the following species: Borrelia burgdorferi, Borrelia mayonii, Borrelia garinii, Borrelia afzelii, Borrelia bavariensis, Borrelia spielmani. (B) Babesia peptides (n = 62) identified in patients diagnosed with post treatment Lyme disease syndrome. 37/148 non acute patients had at least one Babesia urinary peptide, and 17/148 non acute patients had two or more peptides.
