Comparative Genomics ofH. pyloriand Non-PyloriHelicobacterSpecies to Identify New Regions Associated with Its Pathogenicity and Adaptability

Abstract excerpt

The genusHelicobacteris a group of Gram-negative, helical-shaped pathogens consisting of at least 36 bacterial species.Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori), infecting more than 50% of the human population, is considered as the major cause of gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer.
