Abstract excerpt
Helicobacter pylori encodes three histidine kinases and five response regulators belonging to the family of two-component regulatory systems which are involved in transcriptional control. Here we demonstrate that isogenic mutants of H. pylori P76 with deletions of the response regulator open reading frame (ORF) HP1365 and ORFs HP244, HP165, and HP1364 encoding histidine kinases are unable to colonize the stomachs...
