Helicobacter pylori is the dominant species of the human gastric microbiome, and
colonization causes a persistent inflammatory response. H. pylori-induced gastritis is the …

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 …

Phase and antigenic variation result in a heterogenic phenotype of a clonal bacterial
population, in which individual cells either express the phase-variable protein (s) or not, or …

Like many eukaryotes, bacteria make widespread use of postreplicative DNA methylation for
the epigenetic control of DNA-protein interactions. Unlike eukaryotes, however, bacteria use …

Current data from bacterial pathogens of animals and from bacterial symbionts of plants
support some of the more general proposed functions for lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and …

Fucosylated carbohydrate structures are involved in a variety of biological and pathological
processes in eukaryotic organisms including tissue development, angiogenesis, fertilization …

Helicobacter pylori colonizes the stomachs of more than 50% of the world's population,
