HAMAP: Helicobacter pylori (strain P12) complete proteome
General information

Species:  Helicobacter pylori (strain P12)
Species code: HELP2
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Epsilonproteobacteria; Campylobacterales; Helicobacteraceae; Helicobacter (TaxID: 570508) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Micro-aerophilic, Gram-negative, slow-growing, spiral-shaped and flagellated organism. H.pylori is probably the most common cause of chronic bacterial infection of humans, present in almost half of the world population. The presence of the bacterium in the gastric mucosa is associated with chronic active gastritis and is implicated in more severe gastric diseases, including chronic atrophic gastritis, peptic ulceration and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas.

H. pylori P12 is a clinical isolate obtained from a German patient with duodenal ulcer in 1994.
Properties: Presence of flagella: Yes
Human pathogen: Yes
