| HAMAP: Helicobacter pylori (strain Shi470) complete proteome |
General information
Species: Helicobacter pylori (strain Shi470)
| Species code: | HELPS |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Epsilonproteobacteria; Campylobacterales; Helicobacteraceae; Helicobacter (TaxID: 512562) [NEWT/ NCBI] |
| Description: | Micro-aerophilic, Gram-negative, slow-growing, spiral-shaped and flagellated organism. H.pylori is probably the most common cause of chronic bacterial infection of humans, present in almost half of the world population. The presence of the bacterium in the gastric mucosa is associated with chronic active gastritis and is implicated in more severe gastric diseases, including chronic atrophic gastritis, peptic ulceration and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas. Helicobacter pylori Shi470 is a clinical isolate from the gastric antrum of an Amerindian resident of the remote Amazonian village of Shimaa, in Peru. Shimaa village strains such as Shi470 are more closely related to strains from East Asia than other geographic regions, and are postulated to represent the strains of Native Americans before European conquest. |
