Osp-B is an outer-surface protein molecule found in the Lyme disease spirochete ''Borrelia burgdorferi'', a molecule essential for the survival of the bacterium. Since its primary function is to serve both as a site of antibody recognition and as the microvillar attachment to the ''Ixodes scapularis'' midgut, it is constitutively expressed. | <scene name='G15SecL05Tpc3/Ospb/1'>Osp-B</scene> is an outer-surface protein molecule found in the Lyme disease spirochete ''Borrelia burgdorferi'', a molecule essential for the survival of the bacterium.
