Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

C. Tyler Ratliff's research focuses on the genetic manipulation and physiology of spirochetes, particularly those responsible for tick-borne relapsing fever. His work has investigated the role of specific enzymes, such as the diadenylate cyclase CdaA, in the virulence and overall health of bacteria like *Borrelia turicatae*. Ratliff has also contributed to the development and validation of systems for the genetic modification of *Borrelia duttonii*, an Old World tick-borne relapsing fever spirochete. His scholarship includes five publications with a total of 153 citations and an h-index of 3. Ratliff collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Clay D. Jackson-Litteken and Jon S. Blevins.
