Comparative Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of the Carcinogenic Bacterial Model Pathogen Helicobacter felis
1 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
The gram-negative bacterium Helicobacter felis naturally colonizes the gastric mucosa of dogs and cats. Due to its ability to persistently infect laboratory mice, H. felis has been used extensively to experimentally model gastric disorders induced in humans by H. pylori. We determined the 1.67 Mb genome sequence of H. felis using combined Solexa and 454 pyrosequencing, annotated the genome, and compared it with...
