Evolution of functional polymorphism in the gene coding for the Helicobacter pylori cytotoxin.
There are two functionally different alleles of the Helicobacter pylori vacA gene, which code for proteins with different in target cell specificity. The alleles (m1 and m2) differ by approximately 50% in amino acid sequence in a 300 amino acid region, the m-region, which determines specificity. An analysis of partial likelihood anomalies in a set of eight Chinese and six Western vacA genes rev...
متن کاملVacuolating Cytotoxin of Helicobacter pylori
Vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) is one of the most important virulence factors of H. pylori (Hp), which isthe only toxic protein that is secreted from Hp cell into the culture supernatant. The effects of VacA oneukaryotic systems is the subject of many previous and on going research studies. Intracellular targetsfor this toxin include: late endosomal and lysosomal compartments, m...

Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin, VacA.
Helicobacter pylori is the leading bacterial cause of food-borne illness worldwide and plays a major role in the development of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer. Strains isolated from patients contain the cagA gene (cytotoxin-associated gene A) and produce the vacuolating cytotoxin, VacA. Recent molecular and cellular studies of VacA action have begun to unravel its structure...
