Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Virulence Potentials of <i>Helicobacter pylori </i>Strain KE21 Isolated from a Kenyan Patient with Gastric Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma

Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Virulence Potentials of <i>Helicobacter pylori </i>Strain KE21 Isolated from a Kenyan Patient with Gastric Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma

<i>Helicobacter pylori </i>(<i>H.pylori</i>) infection is etiologically associated with severe diseases including gastric cancer; but its pathogenicity is deeply shaped by the exceptional genomic diversification and geographic variation of the species. The clinical relevance...
