Helicobacter pylori is the first formally recognized bacterial carcinogen and is one of the
most successful human pathogens, as over half of the world's population is colonized with …

Nickel is an essential catalytic cofactor of enzymes found in eubacteria, archaebacteria,
fungi, and plants. 1-6 These enzymes catalyze a diverse array of reactions that include both …

The ulcer-causing gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori is the only bacterium known to
colonize the harsh acidic environment of the human stomach. H. pylori survives in acidic …

Background We present an overview of bacterial non-classical secretion and a prediction
method for identification of proteins following signal peptide independent secretion …

Heat shock proteins of the GroEL or Hsp60 class are highly conserved proteins essential to
all living organisms. Even though GroEL proteins are classically considered intracellular …

The mechanisms by which Helicobacter pylori releases its virulence factors are poorly
known. Active secretion has been proposed for some products, including a vacuolating toxin …

Previous results have demonstrated that adherence of Clostridium difficile to tissue culture
cells is augmented by various stresses; this study focussed on whether the GroEL heat …

Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human stomach and is the causative agent of a variety of
gastric diseases. After bacterial attachment, the H. pylori CagA protein is translocated into …

Background & Aims: Helicobacter pylori, a neutralophile, uses acid neutralization by urease
to combat gastric acidity, allowing gastric colonization. Both acute and chronic acid …

Secreted proteins (the secretome) of the human pathogen Helicobacter pylori may mediate
important pathogen-host interactions, but such proteins are technically difficult to analyze …
