Functional analysis of putative restriction-modification system genes in the Helicobacter pylori J99 genome
1 Sept 2000
Abstract excerpt
Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative bacterium, which colonizes the gastric mucosa of humans and is implicated in a wide range of gastroduodenal diseases. The genomic sequences of two H.pylori strains, 26695 and J99, have been published recently. About two dozen potential restriction-modification (R-M) systems have been annotated in both genomes, which is far above the average number of R-M systems in other...
