TL;DR: Sequence analysis indicates that H. pylori has well-developed systems for motility, for scavenging iron, and for DNA restriction and modification, and consistent with its restricted niche, it has a few regulatory networks, and a limited metabolic repertoire and biosynthetic capacity.

TL;DR: The genome of the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi B31, the aetiologic agent of Lyme disease, contains a linear chromosome of 910,725 base pairs and at least 17 linear and circular plasmids with a combined size of more than 533,000 base pairs, which suggest their limited metabolic capacities reflect convergent evolution by gene loss from more metabolically competent progenitors.
