Relaxation of peptidoglycan cross-linking promotes Helicobacter pylori’s helical shape and stomach colonization

The mechanisms by which bacterial cells generate helical cell shape and its functional role are poorly understood. Helical shape of the human pathogen Helicobacter pylori may facilitate penetration of the thick gastric mucus where it replicates. We identified four genes required for helical shape: t...
