Cloning and comparison of ten gene sequences of a Chilean H. pylori strain with other H. pylori strains revealed higher variability for VacA and CagA virulence factors

We have cloned and sequenced ten Helicobacter pylori genes from a Chilean strain (CH-CTX1) including: a cytotoxin VacA fragment, a CagA fragment (A17), a species-specific protein (TsaA), urease subunits (UreA, UreB), a flagellin subunit (FlaB), heat shock proteins (HspA and HspB), adhesin (HpaA) and...
