Modulation of the host cell RNA splicing program by the gastric pathogen helicobacter Pylori
Motivation and Objectives Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative bacterial pathogen colonizing the human stomach. Infection with H. pylori causes chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa and may lead to peptic ulceration and/or gastric cancer. Using a quantitative phosphoproteomic approach several splicing factors were found to be differentially phosphorylated upon infection (Holland et al., ...
متن کاملHost pathogen interactions in Helicobacter pylori related gastric cancer
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), discovered in 1982, is a microaerophilic, spiral-shaped gram-negative bacterium that is able to colonize the human stomach. Nearly half of the world's population is infected by this pathogen. Its ability to induce gastritis, peptic ulcers, gastric cancer and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma has been confirmed. The susceptibility of an individual to the...
متن کاملRemodeling the host environment: modulation of the gastric epithelium by the Helicobacter pylori vacuolating toxin (VacA)
Virulence mechanisms underlying Helicobacter pylori persistence and disease remain poorly understood, in part, because the factors underlying disease risk are multifactorial and complex. Among the bacterial factors that contribute to the cumulative pathophysiology associated with H. pylori infections, the vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) is one of the most important. Analogous to a number of H. pyl...
متن کاملOncogenic signal transduction by the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori
Many Gram-negative pathogens harbor type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) that translocate bacterial virulence factors into host cells to hijack cellular processes. The pathology of the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori strongly depends on a T4SS. This T4SS forms a needle-like pilus, and its assembly is accomplished by multiple protein-protein interactions and various pilus-associated factors th...
متن کاملThe complex methylome of the human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori
The genome of Helicobacter pylori is remarkable for its large number of restriction-modification (R-M) systems, and strain-specific diversity in R-M systems has been suggested to limit natural transformation, the major driving force of genetic diversification in H. pylori. We have determined the comprehensive methylomes of two H. pylori strains at single base resolution, using Single Molecule R...
