causes Lyme disease, the most common tick-transmitted illness in North America. When feed on an infected vertebrate host, spirochetes enter the tick gut along with the bloodmeal and colonize the vector. Here, we show that a secreted tick protein, rotein isulfide somerase (IsPDIA3), enhances colonization of the tick gut.
