Abstract

The molecular strategies used by Helicobacter pylori to colonize and persist in the harsh environment of the human stomach are a critical area of study. Our study identified several genes in this gastric pathogen, including ureA , a gene encoding a protein essential to the survival of H. pylori , that are regulated via the CrdRS two-component system (TCS) in response to nitric oxide (NO).
