The complete nucleotide sequence of the Borrelia burgdorferi dnaA gene (encoding the initiator protein of chromosome replication) and its flanking regions was determined. The putative DnaA polypeptide exhibited 29-42% identity with those of other eubacteria. The gene order in the dnaA region at the centre of the B. burgdorferi linear chromosome is rnpA-rpmH-dnaN-dnaA-gyrB-gyrA in contrast to the consensus eubacterial order of rnpA-rpmH-dnaA-dnaN-recF-gyrB, suggesting a rearrangement during the evolution of the Borrelia chromosome. We did not detect the multiple 9-nucleotide repeats known as DnaA boxes, which characterise origin of replications, in the dnaA-gyrB and dnaA-dnaN intergenic regions. In addition B. burgdorferi DnaA protein differs considerably from those of other eubacteria in a normally highly conserved region at the C-terminus of the polypeptide which may be involved in DNA binding.
