Dynamics of Lewis b Binding and Sequence Variation of the <italic toggle="yes">babA</italic> Adhesin Gene during Chronic <named-content content-type="genus-species">Helicobacter pylori</named-content> Infection in Humans
ABSTRACT Helicobacter pylori undergoes rapid microevolution during chronic infection, but very little is known about how this affects host interaction factors. The best-studied adhesin of H. pylori is BabA, which mediates binding to the blood group antigen Lewis b [Le(b)]. To study the dynamics of L...
