ADP heptose, a novel pathogen-associated molecular pattern associated with <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> type 4 secretion
2018-08-31
Abstract excerpt
The gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori activates the NF-κB pathway in human epithelial cells via the α-kinase 1 (Alpk1)–TIFA axis. We and others have previously shown that heptose 1,7-bisphosphate (HBP) acts as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP). HBP is an intermediate of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) synthesis in H. pylori and other gram-negative bacteria. Deletion of the hldE ( rfaE ) gene encoding...
