| Method |
The H. pylori genome sequence was obtained by a whole-genome random sequencing method. 1,590 predicted coding sequences were identified. They were searched against a non-redundant protein database resulting in 1,091 putative identifications that were assigned biological roles using a classification system adapted from Riley 1993 (PMID 7508076). |
| Comments |
The 1,590
predicted genes had an average size of 945 bp, similar to that
observed in other prokaryotes (refs 7–9 in article), and no genome-wide strand
bias was observed (Fig. 2). More than 70% of the predicted proteins
in H. pylori have a calculated isoelectric point (pI) greater than 7.0,
compared to ,40% in H. influenzae and E. coli. |
