Scientists at Virginia Commonwealth University have just made a new discovery that could change how we fight Lyme disease.

They found a weak spot in the bacteria that causes Lyme, a tiny but powerful enzyme called lactate dehydrogenase (BbLDH). This enzyme helps the bacteria grow and survive in the body. Without it, the bacteria struggles to spread.
