Genetic and functional characterization of the alpAB gene locus essential for the adhesion of Helicobacter pylori to human gastric tissue.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Mar 1999

Odenbreit S, Till M, Hofreuter D, Faller G, Haas R

Abstract excerpt

In this study, we isolated and characterized a chromosomal locus of Helicobacter pylori previously identified by transposon shuttle mutagenesis as being involved in the adhesion of the pathogen to gastric epithelial cells. Two closely homologous genes were identified, designated as alpA and alpB, encoding outer membrane (OM) proteins of 518 amino acids each. They are members of the outer membrane protein...
