cag, a pathogenicity island of Helicobacter pylori, encodes type I-specific and disease-associated virulence factors

cagA, a gene that codes for an immunodominant antigen, is present only in Helicobacter pylori strains that are associated with severe forms of gastroduodenal disease (type I strains). We found that the genetic locus that contains cagA (cag) is part of a 40-kb DNA insertion that likely was acquired h...
