Morphological transformation in <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> is a dynamic process leading to two types of coccoid

2026-01-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The helical shape of Helicobacter pylori is crucial for successful colonization of the human stomach. However, this pathogen can shapeshift into another form termed the “coccoid form” with a spherical shape, through a mechanism that remains elusive. Here, by a combination of fluorescence microscopy using fluorescent D-aminoacids, cryoelectron and atom force microscopy, we explored the dynamics...
