Cluster of Type IV Secretion Genes inHelicobacter pylori's Plasticity Zone

17 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

Some genes present in only certain strains of the genetically diverse gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori may affect its phenotype and/or evolutionary potential. Here we describe a new 16.3-kb segment, 7 of whose 16 open reading frames are homologs of type IV secretion genes (virB4, virB7 to virB11, and virD4), the third such putative secretion gene cluster found in H. pylori. This segment, to be called tfs3,...
